Interesting fact

The 1 Carlino coin was minted during the reign of Grand Master Gregorio Carafa, who was the 63rd Grand Master of the Order of Saint John (also known as the Knights Hospitaller) and ruled Malta from 1680 to 1690. The coin features an image of Carafa on one side and the coat of arms of the Order of Saint John on the other. It was made of silver and weighed 1.21 grams.
