Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 2 Mazunas - Yusuf (Essai) 1330 (1912) from Morocco made of Bronze is that it features a unique blend of Arabic and Berber influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features the Arabic inscription "المزناس يوسف" (Al-Maznas Yusuf), which translates to "Yusuf the Mint Master," while the reverse side features a stylized Berber motif of a crescent moon and star, which is a common symbol in Berber culture. This blend of cultures and influences reflects the rich history and diversity of Morocco, where Arabic and Berber cultures have coexisted and intersected for centuries.
