Malta - Euro (2008-?) Coins
Malta, an island nation in the Mediterranean, has a rich numismatic history that reflects its diverse past and its present as a member of the European Union. Over the centuries, Maltese coinage has evolved, going through different systems and designs that tell the story of the island.
Current currency in circulation
Since 2008, Malta has used the euro as its official currency. Maltese euro coins feature unique designs on their national side, including the Maltese Cross and the country's coat of arms. Prior to adopting the euro, Malta used the Maltese lira, which was in circulation from 1972 to 2007.
Monetary history and highlights
Malta's monetary history is fascinating and diverse. For centuries, the island used coins from several dominant powers, including Phoenicians, Romans and Byzantines. An important milestone was the minting of coins by the Order of St. John in 1566, ushering in an era of distinctively Maltese coinage. In 1972, Malta introduced the Maltese lira, replacing the Maltese pound, in a move towards monetary independence. The transition to the euro in 2008 ushered in a new era in Maltese numismatics, integrating the island into the European monetary system.
