Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Moulay 'Abd al-Rahman, who was the third king of the 'Alawi dynasty in Morocco. He ruled from 1832 to 1844, and his reign was marked by significant political and economic reforms, including the introduction of a new currency system, which led to the minting of this coin.
