Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Falus - Moulay Sulayman (ND type; without mint name; type 3) ND (1792-1822) from Morocco is that it was one of the first coins to feature the image of a Moroccan king. Prior to this coin, Moroccan coins typically featured Islamic symbols and inscriptions, but the ½ Falus - Moulay Sulayman coin features a portrait of King Moulay Sulayman, making it a significant departure from previous Moroccan coinage.
