Obverse description The obverse depicts a panoramic view of the Ħaġar Qim megalithic temple complex, rendered in relief atop a ridge overlooking the south-western coastline of Malta, approximately two kilometres from the village of Qrendi. The legend 'ĦAĠAR QIM TEMPLES' is inscribed along the upper right portion of the field, with the date range '3600 - 3200 BC' positioned beneath it, referencing the prehistoric period of the monument's construction. The country name 'MALTA' appears in the lower left field, with the issuance year '2017' directly below. The engraver's initials 'NGB F' are present in the field. The overall composition reflects an architectural and landscape design consistent with Malta's commemorative euro series celebrating UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
