Interesting fact
The 3 Tari coin featuring Jean de Vallette was minted during his reign as the Grand Master of the Order of Saint John (1557-1568). It's interesting to note that Jean de Vallette was a French noble who played a significant role in the history of Malta, and his portrait on the coin reflects the strong connection between Malta and the Order of Saint John during that time.
