Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sultan Slimane of Morocco, who ruled from 1792 to 1803. The coin's design features the name of the sultan, "Hisham," in Arabic script, as well as the date of minting in both the Islamic calendar (1210-1211) and the Gregorian calendar (1796-1797). This coin is a rare example of a standard circulation coin from the Moroccan States during this time period, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
