Can someone explain how this block has 26 coins? I was under the impression it was 25.

What am I missing? Please excuse the ignorance.

25 BTC block subsidy + ~1.4 BTC in total transaction fees (add up fees of all tx in the block).

From the link.

Transaction Fees   1.4199831 BTC
....
Block Reward   25 BTC

Personally I like the term subsidy. Miners get all fess plus the current subsidy (in new coins).

The block reward seems to be 25 BTC. As it should be.
