Belgia. 50 Cent 1914 (Ei pohjahintaa)
A curated certified example of a 1914 Belgium 50 Centimes silver coin, French legend variety, struck under King Albert I and graded MS62 by Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC). The encapsulated label identifies the piece as “1914 BELGIUM 50C FRENCH MS 62,” confirming Mint State preservation with light contact marks consistent with the assigned grade. Certification number 5783683-012 verifies authenticity and attribution within the NGC population system.
The obverse features the left-facing portrait of King Albert I with the surrounding French inscription “ALBERT ROI DES BELGES,” identifying Albert as King of the Belgians. The portrait style reflects early 20th-century Belgian medallic artistry, with clear hair detail and defined facial contours visible despite minor handling marks. The reverse displays the denomination “50 CENTS” above the date 1914, enclosed within a laurel wreath, with the national legend “ROYAUME DE BELGIQUE” encircling the design. This French-language issue was struck for circulation in francophone regions of Belgium, including Wallonia and Brussels, alongside Dutch-language counterparts for Flemish circulation.
Minted in silver at the Royal Mint of Belgium in Brussels, the 1914 50 Centimes belongs to a pivotal year in European history, marking the outbreak of World War I and the German invasion of Belgium. Coinage dated 1914 carries significant historical context as it represents the final pre-occupation issues before wartime disruptions affected Belgian mint production and circulation patterns.
The MS62 grade indicates full Mint State status with moderate marks typical of large silver coinage stored in bulk. Luster remains evident across both obverse and reverse fields, and major design elements, including the royal portrait and wreath details, remain sharply defined. As a curated NGC-certified silver issue from the Kingdom of Belgium, this 1914 50 Centimes appeals to collectors of European pre–World War I coinage, Albert I series specialists, French-legend Belgian types, and early 20th-century certified world silver.
