The design depicts in the centre a box on a ballot paper, which is being coloured in by a pencil. The coloured box is overlapped by the Venus symbol (the gender symbol for woman/female). At the bottom left next to the central image is inscribed 75 JAAR ANS. Surrounding the central image are also inscriptions in Dutch and French: ‘ALGEMEEN VROUWENKIESRECHT’ – ‘SUFFRAGE UNIVERSEL FÉMININ’. At the bottom of the piece are located the initials of the designer Iris Bruijns. As the Royal Dutch Mint will strike the coins, the mintmark of Utrecht, a mercury staff is located at the right side of the piece, together with the Belgian mint master mark, an aster flower in front of an Erlenmeyer flask, the country code ‘BE’ and the year mark ‘2023’.
The coin’s outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag. |
