MALTESE PHARAOH HOUND is an exclusive 2026 collector coin dedicated to the elegant Pharaoh Hound, one of the canine breeds most closely associated with Malta. Issued by Malta and produced by Germania Mint, this impressive release is struck from 1 Oz of .9999 fine Silver and combines contrasting Ruthenium Plating, Yellow Gold finishing and individual numbering.

The reverse presents a powerful portrait of the Pharaoh Hound, shown in profile with its unmistakable long muzzle, alert expression and exceptionally large upright ears. The animal is rendered in a deep dark Ruthenium finish, creating a dramatic silhouette against the brilliant golden background.

Behind the dog, an elaborate pattern of radiating rays expands outward from the Maltese eight-pointed cross positioned near the top of the composition. The brilliant Yellow Gold finish creates an intense contrast with the dark ruthenium-coated portrait, highlighting the distinctive features of the breed and giving the coin an elegant, contemporary appearance.

The denomination “5 EURO” appears beside the Pharaoh Hound, while the sculpted silver-colored outer frame adds another visual layer to the composition. Its unusual multi-lobed shape distinguishes the piece from conventional round coins and gives the issue a highly recognizable identity.

The obverse continues the same sophisticated visual language. At its centre is a dark ruthenium-plated medallion containing the Coat of Arms of Malta, surrounded by the inscriptions “MALTA 2026” and “1 oz Ag 999.9”. The central section is framed by a radiant Yellow Gold background that mirrors the reverse and once again incorporates the Maltese cross at the top.

The combination of polished golden surfaces, deep black ruthenium and exposed silver-colored details produces a striking three-tone effect while emphasizing the precision of the engraving.

Each coin is individually numbered, further enhancing its exclusivity. With a worldwide mintage limited to only 1,000 pieces, MALTESE PHARAOH HOUND is a highly attractive release for collectors of animal-themed coins, modern precious-metal issues and limited-edition Germania Mint creations.

The coin is housed in a protective capsule and presented in an elegant wooden display box, accompanied by an official Certificate of Authenticity.
