| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large medieval war galley under full sail occupies the central field, depicted in fine relief sailing to the right over stylized waves, with multiple pennants and flags flying from its masts and a long forward-projecting spar. Additional smaller vessels are visible in the background to the right, evoking the naval tradition of the Knights of Malta. The denomination '2 SCVDI' is inscribed in large Roman lettering along the lower portion of the field, integrated into the wave pattern of the exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta occupies a peculiar position in numismatics: a sovereign issuing authority without territory, recognized by over a hundred states, producing coins that are legal tender for an entity with no land borders and a population measured in the hundreds. The 1978 coinage program fell during the magistracy of Angelo de Mojana di Cologna, the 77th Grand Master, whose name this denomination carries — an unusual practice that ties each issue directly to the reigning head of the Order rather than to a monarch or republic.
The .986 fineness is notably purer than most contemporary sovereign silver issues.
