Additionally, the year 2019 is displayed together with the value indication of 5 Euro. The 12 stars of Europe are also shown. On the left is the text 'BELGIEN, BELGIQUE, BELGIE (the country name 'Belgium' in its three official languages)'. The circulation of this coin is 12, 500 pieces and was sold out in no time at the Royal Belgian Mint. The coin is packed in a printed coin holder.
