Interesting fact

The 20 Euro Cents coin featuring Albert II of Belgium was the first coin in the Eurozone to feature a monarch who was still reigning at the time of the coin's minting. This was a departure from the traditional practice of featuring deceased monarchs on coins, and was seen as a symbol of the modernity and continuity of the Belgian monarchy.
