| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Malta occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield bearing the George Cross on the dexter and vertical stripes on the sinister, surmounted by a mural crown and flanked by symmetrical laurel and olive branches tied at the base. A scroll beneath the shield bears the legend REPUBBLIKA TA' MALTA. The country name MALTA appears along the left rim and the date 2021 along the right rim, both in a mirrored orientation. Thirteen five-pointed stars are distributed around the broad outer border, evoking the European Union motif. |

| Additional information |
Malta's Junior College, established in 1937 as a sixth-form institution preparatory to the Royal University of Malta, occupied an unusual position in the island's educational structure — functioning as a bridge between secondary schooling and university at a time when tertiary access was tightly restricted by both capacity and colonial administration. This coin marks the college's role in shaping the small professional class that would eventually staff an independent Maltese state after 1964.
