Description of the 2 Euro 100 Years of the First Flight from Malta 2015

2 Euro Commemorative Malta 2015 100th anniversary of the first flight from Malta — Malta €2 commemorative 2015 100 Years of the First Flight from Malta — coin obverse

The 2 Euro coin we are about to discuss was minted in 2015 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first flight from Malta.

On the Obverse, it features, in a very characteristic manner, the seaplane piloted by Captain Kilmer who, on February 13, 1915, took off from the Grand Harbour of Valletta, landing in the waters of the harbour after 55 minutes of flight. In the background, you can also see the tip of Senglea, one of the most characteristic elements of the Grand Harbour.

At the top, there is the circular inscription “FIRST FLIGHT FROM MALTA” immediately followed on the right by the arch dates “1915 – 2015”. Within the design, just below the seaplane, is the inscription “100th anniversary” while further below are the initials of the author NGB (Noel Galea Bason).

The outer edge is characterized by the 12 five-pointed stars representing the European states.

The Reverse is identical to that of the other 2 Euro coins.
