Comment
I propose:1) to call in French "Mouzouna" and in English "Muzuna".
2) to identify as "Moulay Isma'il" all these types from the period 1082-1139 H / 1672-1727.
3) to put here in this room: all the "illegible workshops" and not the term "Anonymous" which means nothing because they are "Moulay Isma'il".
4) add NDs for unreadable workshops in each workshop or without workshop.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Mazuna - Isma'il (Sijilmasah) coin from Morocco is that it was minted during a time of significant political and cultural change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Sultan Isma'il Ibn Sharif, who ruled Morocco from 1674 to 1721. This was a period of great turmoil, as the country was facing challenges from both internal and external forces, including the threat of European colonization and the struggle for power among various tribes and factions. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the rich cultural heritage and resilience of the Moroccan people during this time.
