The Belgian €2 coin from 2007 in proof quality is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, which laid the foundations of today’s European Union. The coin’s design depicts an open book – a symbol of the Treaty of Rome – placed on the paving of Piazza del Campidoglio in Rome, designed by Michelangelo. The proof finish provides a beautiful mirror-like lustre and precise details, bringing out the symbolism of this historic moment. The coin is supplied in official packaging from the Royal Belgian Mint and is valued among collectors of thematic and European commemorative coins.
