Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Tari coin from Malta is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Order of Saint John (also known as the Knights Hospitaller) on the reverse side. This shield is a nod to the rich history of the Order, which was a major military and political force in the region during the time the coin was minted.
