Comment
Previously C#140.3Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it was minted during the reign of Moulay 'Abd al-Rahman, who was the first king of the Alaouite dynasty, which has ruled Morocco ever since. This coin is a rare example of a silver dirham from that time period and is highly sought after by collectors.
