Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Idris II, who was the founder of the Idrisid dynasty and is considered one of the most important figures in Moroccan history. He was a member of the Abbasid royal family and established his dynasty in 788 AD, which lasted until 985 AD. The coin is a reflection of the cultural and economic exchange that took place during his reign, as it bears the Abbasid style and was made of copper, a metal that was widely used in the region at the time.
