Hassan II underwent three distinct portrait updates on Moroccan coinage during his reign — a reflection of both aging and the palace's periodic reassertion of royal image. This third-portrait dirham, introduced in 1987, coincides with a period of significant economic strain in Morocco: falling phosphate revenues and IMF-mandated austerity had squeezed the national budget through much of the mid-1980s, making even routine coinage updates a quietly political act of institutional normalcy.
