Obverse

Two soldiers prepare for combat on the obverse of 2022 Malta Knights of the Past Silver Coins. This image is based on the Siege of Malta, which occurred from May to September in 1565. Despite having the upper hand in the conflict, the invading Ottoman soldiers were ultimately driven off by the scrappy and intrepid Knights Hospitaller. There are inscriptions as well on the obverse reading KNIGHTS OF THE PAST, 5 EURO.

Reverse

The coat of arms of the Central Bank of Malta is featured on the reverse of 2022 Knights of the Past 1 oz Silver Coins. In this official design, two armored knights appear holding up a shield. This image is then placed as a decoration on the shield of a Maltese knight who stands in the background.

History

The Knights of Malta began as the Knights Hospitaller, who were affiliated with a hospital in present-day Italy. Formed in 1099 as members of the Roman Catholic Church, the Knights established care centers for sick pilgrims journeying to and from the Holy Land. In time the Knights would join forces with the Crusades before setting up headquarters in Malta in the 16^th century.
