Obverse
The obverse of the coin shows the emblem of Malta with the year of issue 2014.
Reverse
The reverse features a nurse administering medication to a wounded soldier. This recalls the humanitarian role that Malta played during the First World War with its 27 hospitals and convalescent camps, where thousands of casualties of the war were treated. The reverse of the coin also features a soldier and a poppy which is the evocative symbol of remembrance of all soldiers who died in the conflict. The coins were designed and engraved by Noel Galea Bason.
