Subject of the commemorative coin:
450th anniversary of the death of Pieter Bruegel the Elder

Description of the design:
The inner part of the coin features the portrait of the famous Belgian artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder together with a painting on an easel. Above this are the name P. Bruegel and the dates 1569, with a subtle cross referring to the year of death, and 2019, the year of issue. Since the Royal Dutch Mint will strike the coin, the mint mark of Utrecht, a mercury staff, is on the left, with the mint mark of the director of the Royal Mint of Belgium, the coat of arms of the municipality of Herzele and the country code BE below. The initials LL of the designer of the coin, Mr. Luc Luycx, are on the right. Finally, small dots forming a circle are located on the edge of the inner part. The twelve stars of the European flag are depicted along the outer edge of the coin.
