| Additional information |
Alhucemas — known today as Al Hoceima — was a Spanish presidio on the Moroccan Mediterranean coast, held from 1673 until cession to Morocco in 1956. This piece belongs to Spain's long-running series commemorating its historic plazas de soberanía, struck in modern brass with fantasy dates rendered in the Islamic Hijri calendar alongside the Gregorian year. The Hijri year 1422 corresponds to 2001, not 2014, which creates a deliberate anachronism built into the design program rather than an error.
