In 1999 to celebrate the Millennium, the Royal Mint of Belgium released a very Limited Issue 500 Five Hundred Franc Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver.
The reverse designed by Willem Vis depicts a delightful portrait of King Albert and Queen Isabella with onlookers vying for a glimpse of their new sovereigns. The obverse design is a stylised map of Europe with stars representative of the European Union. These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
