| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, centrally positioned numeral '2' above the denomination legend FRANCS, with ESSAI inscribed below in smaller characters, all within a plain field. The Arabic denomination فرنكان curves above the numeral along the upper arc, surmounted by the Arabic inscription السكة المحمدية (Muhammadan Coinage) running along the uppermost periphery. To the left, the Gregorian year An 1951 is displayed in two lines, while the corresponding Hijri year عام 1370 appears symmetrically on the right. The engraver's signature J.HAINAUT is inscribed in small letters in the lower left field, with Arabic script elements completing the lower arc. The design achieves a harmonious bilingual balance characteristic of French Protectorate Moroccan coinage. |
