| Obverse description | A large interlaced five-pointed star (the Seal of Solomon) dominates the central field, rendered in fine relief with geometric precision. Decorative foliate and floral ornaments fill the spaces between the star's points, lending an ornate character to the design. A bilingual circular legend surrounds the composition, with Arabic script reading along the upper arc and the Latin inscription EMPIRE CHERIFIEN flanking the lower field, with MAROC appearing at the base. The overall design is characteristic of the Sharifian monetary tradition under Mohammed V, combining Islamic geometric symbolism with French engraving aesthetics. |
