5 Francs Belgium Coin | Belgian Franc Pre-Euro Collectible Coin

This is an authentic 5 Francs coin from Belgium, issued by the Royal Mint of Belgium (Monnaie Royale de Belgique / Koninklijke Munt van België) before the introduction of the Euro (€).
The coin features a portrait of King Baudouin I on the obverse, representing Belgium’s royal era, and the denomination “5 FRANCS” along with the year and Belgian coat of arms on the reverse.

The Belgian Franc (BEF) was the official currency of Belgium until 2002, when it was replaced by the Euro.
Older mint years, especially from the 1950s–1990s, are now considered rare and valuable collectibles, particularly in uncirculated (UNC) condition.
