In 2017, the Central Bank of Malta and MaltaPost are issuing a joint numismatic product to commemorate Malta's first Presidency of the Council of the European Union. The product will consist of a silver coin and a silver foil stamp replica.
The coin, struck at the Royal Dutch Mint, shows the emblem of Malta and the year of issue 2017 on the obverse and the official logo adopted for the Maltese Presidency of the Council for the European Union on the reverse. The silver replica stamp was also produced for MaltaPost by the Royal Dutch Mint and depicts the €3.59 postage stamp from the Maltese Presidency of the Council of the European Union postage stamp issue.
This joint product is available in a presentation case and is limited to 500 sets.
