Interesting fact
The 100 Euro Albert II coin from Belgium, issued in 2005 to commemorate the 175th anniversary of independence, has a unique feature. The coin's design, created by artist Jan van Rysbroeck, includes a small stone from the Belgian Congo, which was a colony of Belgium at the time of its independence. This stone, called "Kivu," is incorporated into the coin's design, symbolizing the connection between Belgium and its former colony. This interesting fact adds historical and cultural significance to the coin, making it a valuable collector's item.
