A new coin.
The Belgium 10 Francs coin of 1968, struck in nickel, represents one of the most modernistic issues of Belgian numismatics. On the obverse, it features a refined left-facing portrait of King Baudouin, the fifth King of the Belgians, whose long reign was marked by social reforms and European cooperation. The engraver’s signature appears discreetly beneath the neckline. The reverse showcases an abstract interpretation of the Belgian coat of arms, with fluid sculptural lines that reflect the contemporary artistic tendencies of the 1960s. Alongside the design are the denomination “10 F,” the inscription “BELGIE,” and the year “1968,” accompanied by the engraver’s mark. Certified SP67 by PCGS, this piece displays a brilliant strike and superior surface preservation. It is valued not only for its rarity in such condition but also as a bold symbol of Belgium’s transition into modern coin design, bridging tradition and avant-garde aesthetics.
