In 2021, Malta commemorated the 550th anniversary of the birth of German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer with the release of a €10 Silver Proof coin. Issued by the Central Bank of Malta and struck by the Royal Dutch Mint, the coin celebrates Dürer's immense contributions to art, particularly his detailed engravings and woodcuts. The reverse features one of his iconic self-portraits, while the obverse displays Malta's coat of arms. Crafted in 0.925 sterling silver, the proof-quality finish highlights its intricate design. This limited-edition collectible honors Dürer’s legacy and strengthens cultural ties between Malta and the European artistic heritage.
