Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Francs - Mohammed V (Essai; with "Essai") 1347 (1929) from Morocco is that it was minted during the reign of King Mohammed V, who was the first king of Morocco to issue coins with his own image on them. This coin, which features the king's portrait on one side and the Moroccan coat of arms on the other, was minted as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype. The fact that it was made of silver (.680) and weighs 10 grams makes it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in Moroccan coinage.
