| Obverse description | The sixth coat of arms of the Republic of Malta occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield bearing a cross and vertical stripes, surmounted by a mural crown with five visible towers. The shield is flanked by two symmetrical olive branches and supported by a ribbon scroll in the exergue bearing the legend REPUBBLIKA TA' MALTA in Latin script. The legend MALTA arcs along the left border and the date 2026 along the right, both set against a polished mirror field. Twelve five-pointed stars, referencing the European Union, are arranged in a ring around the outer border of the coin. |

| Additional information |
Valletta has held UNESCO World Heritage status since 1980, but the city's significance to European coinage runs deeper — it was within Valletta's fortifications that the Knights of St. John operated one of the most prolific mints in the early modern Mediterranean, striking scudi and tari that circulated across Catholic Europe and into Ottoman trade networks. Malta's modern commemorative silver program has consistently drawn on that minting heritage, issuing pieces tied to the island's baroque architecture and its outsized role in sixteenth and seventeenth-century geopolitics.
The 2026 date places this among the Central Bank's forward-dated issues, a scheduling practice the bank has used since at least the 2010s to accommodate international collector distribution ahead of domestic release.
