Malta's relationship with Prague's astronomical clock is purely philatelic in origin — this is one entry in a long-running Maltese collector series documenting European architectural landmarks, a program the Central Bank has leaned on heavily since the euro adoption in 2008 to generate seigniorage revenue from the numismatic market rather than circulation. The Orloj itself dates to 1410, making it one of the oldest functioning astronomical clocks in the world, though the elaborate wooden figures that march hourly were added centuries later.
