Interesting fact

The 4 Tari coin from Malta, minted in 1697 during the reign of Grand Master Ramon Perellos y Roccaful, features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Order of Saint John, which was the ruling order in Malta at the time. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the denomination. This feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
