Comment
Listed in Krause as AH1365 although circulation issue is dated AH1364Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 50 Centimes - Mohammed V (Essai) 1364 (1945) from Morocco made of Aluminium bronze is that it was minted during the French protectorate over Morocco, which lasted from 1912 to 1956. The coin features the portrait of Mohammed V, the Sultan of Morocco at the time, and was intended to be used as a circulating coin in Morocco. However, it was never officially released into circulation and remains a rare and valuable collector's item.
