The 2016 Malta 2 euro commemorative coin, themed Solidarity through Love, features a poignant design created by a student, Sarah Cilia Vincenti, following a national competition held by the Central Bank of Malta. The imagery depicts two children holding a Maltese flag, with a heart symbol positioned above them to represent the theme of solidarity. This artwork was chosen to reflect the importance of social unity and the compassionate spirit of the Maltese people. By highlighting the perspective of the younger generation, the coin serves as an enduring message of care and togetherness within the community. The reverse side retains the standard European map design common to all euro coins. This commemorative coin was issued in 2016 with a mintage of 350,000 pieces.
