FDC 2025 set - Tribute to Hasselt and 2½ euro commemorative coins

A brilliant tribute to the city of Hasselt! This new FDC set is a perfect addition to the Fleur de Coin series of coins, presented in an elegant pouch with the KMR logo on the back. After Ghent, Eupen and Namur, the series now features Hasselt.

Hasselt, the Belgian capital of genever, was first mentioned in 1165. For a long time attached to the County of Looz, the town was later integrated into the episcopal principality of Liège, before becoming the current capital of the province of Limburg. Thanks to its strategic position, first on the axis linking Bruges to Cologne and then close to major road and rail links near the Albert Canal, Hasselt has maintained its prosperity over the centuries. Its rich architectural heritage, epitomized by the Gothic cathedral of Saint-Quintin and its artistic treasures, bears witness to its fascinating history. Hasselt is also a dynamic and welcoming city, renowned for its internationally renowned Fashion Museum, its refined gastronomy and its magnificent Japanese Garden, the largest in Belgium, which amazes even visitors from Japan.

This exceptional boxed set includes not only the eight uncirculated vintage 2025 euro coins minted in Fleur de Coin quality, but also the two new commemorative 2½ euro coins issued in 2025. You thus benefit from a complete set representing a nominal total of 8.88 euros, combining numismatic beauty with a tribute to an emblematic Belgian city.
