A colourful tribute to a modernist master
Gaudí’s architecture drew inspiration from nature, geometry and faith. The design reflects those themes through the soaring forms of the Sagrada Família and vivid mosaic colour, set against frosted relief and polished Proof fields. The obverse bears the Central Bank of Malta emblem, denomination and year of issue.
Individually numbered limited issue
The plain edge carries an individual number within the 700-piece edition. That low mintage, together with the artistic subject and specialised surface treatment, makes the coin a compelling addition to collections focused on architecture, European cultural figures and modern silver numismatics. Multiple gallery views document the coin and its presentation.
