Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Moulay 'Abd al-Rahman, who was the fourth ruler of the 'Alawi dynasty in Morocco. He ruled from 1845 to 1852, and his reign was marked by significant political and economic reforms, including the modernization of the country's currency. The Dirham coin was introduced during his reign, and it remained the standard currency of Morocco until the 20th century.
