| Reverse description | At the centre of the field, a fisherman is depicted rowing a traditional wooden boat to the left, with two large conical wicker fish traps prominently stacked in the stern. Stylised wavy lines fill the field to suggest open water. The circular legend FAO KONFERENZA DINJIJA TAS-SAJD arcs around the upper periphery, with the dates 1983-84 along the lower right. The denomination Lm 1 appears at the bottom of the field, flanked by two small decorative fish symbols. |

| Additional information |
The World Fisheries Conference was held in Rome in 1984 under FAO auspices, and Malta — a small island nation whose economy and diet have been shaped by Mediterranean fishing for millennia — was among the participating states. The commemorative program was modest in scope, and the copper-nickel circulation strike saw limited international distribution outside the Maltese domestic market.
