Malta 2018 Cultural heritage - From children with solidarity
Cultural Heritage
The design was created by a
school student and depicts a variety of themes intrinsic to Maltese heritage
including: an allusion to the prehistoric temples, which are the world’s oldest
free-standing structures, a church dome and spire, which is a characteristic
feature of the Maltese town and village skyline and a representation of a
traditional Maltese boat carrying a Maltese flag. The name of the issuing
country ‘Malta’ is at the top of the inner circle of the coin and the year
‘2018’ at the bottom. The coin’s outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European
Union.
