Comment
Restelli/Sammut 37Interesting fact
The 15 Tarì coin was minted during the brief reign of Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan, who was the 74th Grand Master of the Order of Saint John (also known as the Knights Hospitaller) and ruled Malta from 1776 to 1777. This coin is one of the few coins minted during his reign, and it features his portrait on one side and the coat of arms of the Order of Saint John on the other.
