The Dukat Order of Malta made of brass is inspired by the medieval knightly order. Produced using classic techniques with a hand-engraved die, it is made of polished brass, resembling a medieval gold ducat in appearance and weight. This ducat, which did not exist in the Middle Ages, is inspired by Mailberg Castle in Lower Austria, one of the oldest commanderies of the Order of Malta (since 1146). The order, also known as the Knights Hospitaller, originated in the 11th century in the Holy Land and shaped history as defenders of pilgrims, Rhodes, and Malta.

On the front, there is a knight in armor on a galloping horse. The shield and the horse's caparison are decorated with the Maltese cross, framed by a Gothic inscription. On the reverse side, you can see a knight's shield with the eight-pointed Maltese cross, the symbol of honor, faith, and courage.

The Dukat Order of Malta made of brass is ideal as game currency for LARP, knightly orders, crusades, as a theater prop, or as an impressive game piece for board games like Talisman or a gift for knight fans.
