Old coins can be exchanged until February 1

Old Maltese lira, cent and mil coins, which ceased to be legal tender after January 31, 2008, will not be exchangeable after February 1, the Central Bank said.

Until then, the coins can only be exchanged at the Bank's Annexe, St James's Counterguard, Valletta, from Monday to Friday between 8.30 a.m. and 1 p.m.

The bank will continue to exchange lira banknotes until January 31, 2018.

Malta had adopted the euro in a smooth changeover at the beginning of last year.
