Malta's 2 Liri denomination had a short run — the lira series was retired entirely when Malta adopted the euro in 2008, making the Millennium note one of the last issues in the currency's history. Thomas De La Rue produced it in London, as they had printed Maltese notes consistently since independence-era issues in the 1960s.
The security specification is modest by year-2000 standards — windowed thread and watermark only, without the holographic foil or colour-shifting ink that many central banks were incorporating at the time. Whether that reflects a deliberate cost decision or a short anticipated lifespan for the lira series is not documented, but the timing suggests the latter.
