Gold price in Belgium

Rules and sources

In Belgium, jewellery made or imported must carry two hallmarks before it is sold: one showing the precious metal and its fineness in thousandths (a lozenge for gold), and one identifying the maker or agent. Every maker, trade assayer or buyer of precious metals must register in the Guarantee Register.
