| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored bust of Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan facing right, depicted with long flowing hair and elaborately engraved plate armor with pauldrons and gorget details. The effigy occupies the central field with fine baroque portraiture typical of late 18th-century Maltese coinage. The peripheral Latin legend reads F EMMANUEL DE ROHAN M * M *, separated by star stops, running along the inner border of a reeded rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Emmanuel de Rohan-Polduc was elected Grand Master in 1775 and proved an unusually capable administrator, commissioning a comprehensive legal code — the Diritto Municipale di Malta — that remained in force well beyond the Order's expulsion by Napoleon in 1798. The 20 Scudi was the flagship gold denomination of his coinage program, struck at Valletta in limited quantities for prestige and large transactions rather than everyday commerce.
The Restelli census identifies only three die marriages for this type, confirming the modest production run. Most survivors show little wear, consistent with pieces that functioned more as stores of value than circulating currency.
