Interesting fact
The 1982 Malta 25 Cents (Decimalization) coin was designed by artist Edward Caruana Dingli and features the Maltese coat of arms on one side and the denomination and year on the other. The coat of arms includes a shield with the symbols of the four evangelists (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and is topped with a crown, representing the country's history as a British colony. The coin was minted to commemorate Malta's transition from using the traditional Maltese lira to the decimal system, and it is a unique and collectible piece of numismatic history.
