Order of Il Sovrano Militare Ordine di Malta

the Order of Il Sovrano Militare Ordine di Malta is not a mint or world mint. The Order of Malta is a Catholic lay religious order that traces its origins to the medieval Knights Hospitaller and known for its humanitarian mission, providing medical and humanitarian aid in over 120 countries worldwide, philanthropic and charitable works and it is recognized as a sovereign subject of international law.

As Malta does not have a government-owned mint, it does not have a facility called Malta World Mint. However, there are private mints that operate in Malta and produce coins, medals, and other numismatic items for collectors and investors. These private mints may have different specializations such as producing commemorative coins, bullion coins, and other numismatic items.

Malta also has a rich history of coin production dating back to the Phoenicians, Romans, and the Knights of St. John, who all minted coins on the island. Malta’s coinage has also undergone significant changes throughout its history, with the island being ruled by various foreign powers.

As a popular tourist destination, Malta also has a market for souvenir and commemorative coins, which are sold to tourists as a memento of their visit. These coins are usually made of base metals and have a lower intrinsic value than coins produced for circulation or investment.

Many of these private mints also offer custom minting services for businesses, organizations, and individuals. These services include design, production, and packaging of coins, medals, and other numismatic items.

In conclusion, Malta does not have a government-owned mint called Malta World Mint, but there are private mints that operate in Malta and produce coins, medals, and other numismatic items for collectors and investors. These private mints may have different specializations such as producing commemorative coins, bullion coins, and other numismatic items.
