Comments

KM(2019) lists (but does not picture) a 100 Euro Franc Germinal coin, KM# 239, as a 2004 coin. Other sources identify the Franc Germinal coin as 2003 KM# 238. (KM lists a 100 Euro 2003 KM# 238 commemorating the 10th anniversary of the reign of Albert II. Confirmation of that coin has not been found.)
