Also a video caption of this event (source: vrt). The King and Queen "made" the first ones themselves.

The silver one for the King's 75th birthday has a value of 10 EUR (but if you want one you pay 32 EUR), the golden coin for the Golden Wedding anniversary is worth 100 EUR (but if you want one you'd have to cough up 400 EUR)

I am getting a clip with a lady that gets 90% of what she pays for child day care back from the state.

There is a clip on the website of the newspaper 'Standaard': De Standaard Online - In Beeld

All these clips, videos and photos make this Forum so very interesting. Thank you.
Queen Paola is such a beautiful woman.

Yes, I see that they seem to use the same link for different clips every day. Now it's something political.

Let me see if I can find dear old Albert and Paola again.
