Knights of the Past 2022, 1 oz Silver Coin

This is a collection of silver bullion coins telling the story of the famous Order of Malta

This order, which has been in operation for almost 1,000 years, and its origins date back to the late 11th century. It is an organization that, thanks to its military strength, played a significant role in the history of the world, especially our continent. The latest valuer in the series depicts one of Europe's most important military events - the siege of Malta in 1565, which halted the expansion of the great Ottoman Empire.

The obverse of this silver investment coin depicts the armed clash between the Knights of Malta and the troops of the Turkish Sultan. In the foreground we see warriors of both sides facing each other, ready to grab their weapons. In the background we can see the defensive walls of Malta and the Turkish fleet surrounding the island. The reverse of the coin features the coat of arms of the Central Bank of Malta, depicted on a shield held by a knight. The coin is legal tender with a denomination of €5 and was minted in a limited mintage of only 15,000 copies.

The coins are packaged in decorative blister packs, accompanied by certificates of authenticity.
