Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Mazunas - Yusuf (Essai) 1340 (1922) from Morocco is that it features a unique blend of Arabic and Berber influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features the Arabic inscription "الملك المغربي" (Al-Muluk al-Maghribi), which means "The Moroccan King," while the reverse side features a stylized Berber motif. This blend of cultures reflects the rich history and diversity of Morocco, where Arabic and Berber languages and traditions have coexisted for centuries.
