Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Francs - Mohammed V (Pattern) 1370 (1951) from Morocco made of Gold is that it was never officially released into circulation. Instead, it was only produced as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a prototype or sample for consideration by the Moroccan government, but ultimately not adopted for use. This makes it a rare and unique piece among collectors.
