| Aanvullende informatie |
Claude de la Sengle served as Grand Master for only four years before dying in office in 1557, making his coinage among the shorter-reigned issues in the Hospitaller series. The Order was still reeling from the 1522 loss of Rhodes and operating from Malta under an arrangement with Charles V that required annual payment of a single falcon to the Viceroy of Sicily — hardly the position of strength the Knights had once enjoyed.
The 2 Tari denomination occupied a workhorse role in Maltese commerce during this period, circulating alongside Spanish reales that dominated Mediterranean trade. Schembri's cataloguing of this type as #2 suggests it was among the earlier die sequences of the reign.
