| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the 175th anniversary of the Belgian dynasty, this small gold piece appeared during Albert II's reign at a moment when Belgian federal politics were under considerable strain — the 2005–2006 period saw prolonged government formation crises that made commemorative assertions of dynastic continuity something of a pointed gesture. The 12½ euro denomination itself is a modern Belgian invention, deployed almost exclusively for small-format gold issues where the fractional face value is largely notional.
Léopold I, the first King of the Belgians, accepted the throne in 1831 after the original choice, the French Duke of Nemours, was rejected by the great powers.
