Interesting fact
The 250 Dirhams - Mohammed VI (World Children's Day) 1422 (2001) coin from Morocco is a unique piece that was issued to commemorate World Children's Day, which is celebrated on November 20th of every year. The coin features an image of King Mohammed VI on one side and a group of children on the other, symbolizing the importance of children and their well-being. The coin's design is particularly noteworthy because it was created by a Moroccan artist named Nourredine Khourchid, who is known for his work in numismatics and has designed several other coins for the Moroccan mint.
