Save the Children Fund

In 1991 the Central Bank of Malta participated in an international coin programme intended primarily to provide funds for the benefit of a section of the international Community. The obverse of the coin shows the Coat of Arms of Malta, whereas the reverse shows three children engaged in a common and simple game called 'Cat', in which the 'cat' chases the 'mice' and catches them by a touch of the hand.
