The Royal Mint of Belgium is responsible for ordering the Belgian circulation coins, the design, the quality control and the screening of counterfeit coins. The Royal Mint also represents the Belgian State on an international level. The coinage and the commercialization of commemorative coins and medals has been awarded to the Royal Dutch Mint. The Belgian king remains the issuing authority.
The issues of the official assortment issued by the Royal Mint of Belgium in 2018 are known.
You can find more information here about the timing, maximum circulation and how to purchase them (information in Dutch).
Remark: the official issuances ordered by the Royal Mint of Belgium bear the mark of the Mint Master, next to the mark of Utrecht’s Dutch Mint. The other issuances which are not mentioned in the table below are not official issuances of the Belgian State.
