In tribute to Malta’s endangered native species, Germania Mint presents a new collector’s edition featuring the Maltese Ox (Gendus). Once widely used as a working animal, this historic breed of cattle has nearly disappeared, with only a few individuals remaining, none fully purebred.
The coin, designed by Natalia Danysz, preserves the distinctive shape and Maltese symbols of previous issues, while giving them a fresh and artistic reinterpretation. On the obverse, the ox’s head is surrounded by flowing lines representing the wind – creating a sense of motion and lightness, while emphasizing the animal’s strength and majesty.
This collector’s edition blends tradition with a commitment to preserving natural heritage, honoring endangered species that remain a vital part of Malta’s ecosystem.
The ennobled high-relief coin 2025 Malta Maltese Ox 10 Euro 2 oz Silver BU High Relief has been minted in a limited edition of 500 pieces. It is carefully packaged in a lens capsule and an elegant wooden display, making it an excellent choice for collectors and numismatics enthusiasts.
