Nuta przedstawia Adolphe'a Saxa, wynalazcę saksofonu. Banknot ten zawiera szereg innowacji:

- Pierwszy (i jedyny) banknot o nominale 200 franków belgijskich wprowadzony do obiegu.

- Zawiera metodę identyfikacji dla osób niedowidzących (namacalne paski w lewym górnym rogu).

- Został wprowadzony do obiegu przed przejściem na euro, aby jego wartość była w przybliżeniu równoważna wartości banknotu o nominale 5 euro.

The note features Adolphe Sax, the inventor of the saxophone. This note features a number of innovation:

- First (and only) 200 Belgian Franc note put in circulation.

- Includes a method of identification for the visually impaired (tangible bars in the left-hand top corner)

- Was put in circulation ahead of the transition to Euro so that it would be roughly equivalent in value to the 5 Euro note.
