Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 20 Francs - Mohammed V (Essai) 1352 (1934) from Morocco made of Aluminium weighing 5.04 g is that it is a rare and unique coin, with only a few examples known to exist. It was minted in 1934 as a trial or pattern coin, and it features a portrait of Mohammed V, the Sultan of Morocco at the time, on one side, and the Moroccan coat of arms on the other. The use of aluminum as the material for the coin was also unusual, as most coins of that time were made of more traditional metals like gold, silver, or copper. This coin's rarity and historical significance make it highly sought after by collectors and numismatists.
