The Belgian 2 euro standard circulation coin features the effigy of King Philippe, who has served as the monarch of the Belgians since his accession in 2013. Designed by Luc Luycx, the national side showcases the royal portrait in profile, facing towards the left. To the right of the monarch, the royal monogram 'FP' is displayed, surmounted by a crown, with the country code 'BE' positioned below. This design serves as a consistent symbol of the Belgian constitutional monarchy, reflecting the nation's historical continuity and its role within the Eurozone. The surrounding twelve stars of the European Union represent the unity and harmony of the member states. This standard 2 euro coin was issued in 2022 with a mintage of 13,000 pieces.
