Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 5th 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 raising awareness about the issue and eventually led to the signing of a ceasefire agreement between Morocco and the Polisario Front, a nationalist movement that sought independence for Western Sahara. The coin's design, which features a portrait of King Hassan II, serves as a reminder of the monarch's support for the Green March and his commitment to the reunification of Morocco.
