This 2 Franc commemorative from Belgium (1969) honors the 2000th anniversary of Arlon (Aarlen), one of the oldest towns in the country. The design features a finely engraved depiction of two Roman figures from local archaeological sculpture, rendered in deep violet-brown tones. Issued as part of Belgium’s cultural heritage series, it highlights Arlon’s Roman past and its longstanding historical significance in Gaul and the Low Countries. A desirable piece for collectors of classical art on stamps, Belgian history issues, and engraved commemoratives.
