Comment

Coin in coincard with a mint mark

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases Malta's rich cultural heritage. The obverse side of the coin depicts a representation of the Maltese temples, which are some of the oldest free-standing structures in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The reverse side features a traditional Maltese boat, known as a "luzzu," which is a symbol of the country's maritime history and culture. The coin's bimetallic design, with a nickel brass clad nickel center in a copper-nickel ring, adds an extra layer of uniqueness to the coin.
