Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 60th birthday of King Hassan II of Morocco, who ruled the country from 1961 until his death in 1999. The coin's design features an image of the king on one side and the Moroccan coat of arms on the other. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
