Why are the latest Belgian 1 franc coins called "Elström type" (KM# 187/188)? I get different information across the internet about who designed these coins. Some sites say Elström other say Keustermans/Tits.
The Belgian mint site is appalling unfortunately... not very helpful.

Anyone got a reliable source for this information?

Thanks

The last 1 Fr coins with the portrait of King Baudouin/Boudewijn were designed by Harry Elstrøm. As far as I know, Jan A. Keustermans designed the 1994-98 circulation coins featuring King Albert, and also the obverses (portrait sides) of the Belgian euro and cent circulation coins 1999-2007 and 2009-2013.
