Malta Banknotes Catalog
The history of banknotes in Malta reflects the rich cultural and economic heritage of this island nation. Over the years, Malta has undergone several changes in its currency, from colonial times to its integration into the European Union.
Current banknotes in circulation
Since 2008, Malta has used the euro as its official currency. The banknotes in circulation are the same as in other eurozone countries, with denominations of 5, 10, 20, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 euros. These banknotes feature designs of bridges, doors and windows symbolizing openness and cooperation between European countries.
Old Maltese banknotes
Before adopting the euro, Malta used the Maltese lira. The Maltese lira banknotes, introduced in 1967, featured historical and cultural motifs significant to the island, such as the Grand Harbour of Valletta and the Temple of Ħaġar Qim. An important milestone in Maltese notafilia was the issuance of commemorative banknotes in 1989 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Malta's independence, showing the country's progress and development since 1964.
