Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of the Green March, a significant event in Moroccan history that took place on October 16, 1975. The Green March was a peaceful demonstration where thousands of Moroccans marched towards the southern city of El-Aaiún, which was occupied by Spain at the time, to demand the return of the Western Sahara territory to Morocco. The march was successful in drawing international attention to the issue, and it eventually led to the signing of a peace treaty between Morocco and Spain in 1976, which allowed for the return of the Western Sahara to Morocco. The coin's design, featuring King Hassan II, serves as a reminder of the country's rich history and its commitment to peaceful resolution of conflicts.
