Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern Falus - Abd al-Aziz (Pattern; Fes) 1319 (1902) from Morocco made of Bronze is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European design elements. The coin's obverse side features a depiction of the Moroccan king, Abd al-Aziz, wearing a fez and a long coat, while the reverse side features a stylized pattern of Arabic script and geometric shapes, which was a common feature of Islamic art and architecture during that time period. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between Morocco and Europe during the early 20th century.
