Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sultan al-Husayn, who ruled Morocco from 1797 to 1822. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was minted during his reign, and it is made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time. Additionally, the fact that it does not feature the ruler's name on the coin is a unique aspect of its design, as most coins from this time period typically featured the ruler's name or title.
