The Belgium 5 Francs silver coin 1873, Leopold II Coinage Position A (KM-24), is a distinguished collectible that embodies the elegance and symbolism of 19th-century European coinage. Certified MS62 by PCGS, this piece presents on its obverse a left-facing portrait of King Leopold II, executed with refined detail by engraver Leopold Wiener. The surrounding inscription LEOPOLD II ROI DES BELGES emphasizes his reign as the second monarch of Belgium. On the reverse, the crowned national coat of arms dominates the design, featuring a powerful lion rampant at the center of the shield, flanked by laurel branches tied with a bow. The denomination 5 F appears on both sides of the shield, while the date 1873 is placed below. Encircling the top edge is the national motto L’UNION FAIT LA FORCE (Unity Makes Strength), underlining Belgium’s constitutional and political identity. With its remarkable Mint State preservation, historic significance, and striking artistry, this certified coin offers collectors a valuable opportunity to own a genuine piece of Belgium’s numismatic heritage.
