We just had our big numismatic weekend with the Melbourne Money Expo. At the show I got to meet John Gatt who's just published a new work on the Coins Minted by the
Knights of Malta. It's a fantastic work and even though this isn't an area I collect a copy now graces my ever expanding bookshelves.
Thanks. Darren included the below link to the author's web site, from which I've taken the following information. -Editor
Coins Minted By The Knights in Malta
This book is a project of passion written by John Gatt that has taken twelve years and included hundreds of hours spent researching and photographing the coins of the Knights
of Malta at museums and private collectors throughout the world.
The finest quality Hard bound book with 427 full colour pages with over 5,800 photos. The size, weight, rotation and edge type has been listed of over 2850 coin varieties which
is close to twice the number listed in all previous catalogues. Images of all the coins are shown showing the difference with each variety.
The number of each variety found in museums and in private collections is shown giving an accurate indication of your coins rarity.
