| Additional information |
Bank Al-Maghrib introduced nickel plated steel across its lower denominations as part of a broader coinage modernization program in the early 2000s, replacing older cupro-nickel compositions to reduce production costs against rising base metal prices. The half dirham sees genuine daily circulation in Morocco, particularly in urban markets where small-denomination transactions remain cash-dependent despite growing mobile payment penetration.
