Jean de la Valette · 3 tarì

Undated; reign 1557–1568 · Order of St John

Jean de la Valette issued this silver 3 tarì during the Order’s rule in Malta. This record groups the denomination and metal under the issuing Grand Master. It does not combine copper tokens with silver coins of the same face value. The linked private collection documents specimens and catalogue references. Specimen measurements vary and are not treated here as an official manufacturing standard. Eight-pointed cross is an important visual feature within this denomination family.
