| Reverse description | The denomination '2 FRANCS' is prominently displayed in large numerals at the centre of the field, with the word 'ESSAI' inscribed below in smaller letters, indicating this is a pattern strike. Above the numeral, the value is also expressed in Arabic script ('فرنكان'). The dual date appears on either side: 'An 1942' in Latin to the left and '1361' in Arabic-Indic numerals to the right, corresponding to the Hijri year. A circular Arabic legend fills the upper arc reading 'المملكة المحمدية الشريفة', and a further Arabic inscription curves along the lower arc. The engraver's signature 'J. HANAUT' appears in the lower field. |
