Reverse description The reverse displays an ornate six-petaled rosette formed by interlacing arcs, each terminating in stylized fleur-de-lis points, creating an elaborate geometric framework characteristic of Moroccan decorative arts. Within the central cartouche formed by the interlacing design, the Arabic inscription 'ضرب في باريس' (struck in Paris) appears in two lines of elegant script, with the Hijri date '1340' rendered in Eastern Arabic numerals beneath. The overall composition exemplifies the refined Islamic geometric aesthetic applied to Moroccan coinage of the Sherifian era.
