Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 4 Fulus - Moulay al-Hasan I (Pattern; Fes) 1311 (1894) from Morocco made of Bronze is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European design elements. The coin's obverse side features a depiction of the Moroccan king, Moulay al-Hasan I, wearing a traditional Islamic turban and beard, while the reverse side features a pattern of interlocking circles and stars, which is a common motif in Islamic art. However, the coin's overall design is also influenced by European artistic styles, particularly the Art Nouveau movement, which was popular at the time. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between Morocco and Europe during the late 19th century.
