Obverse description Left-facing effigy of King Hassan II rendered in high relief against a plain field, with naturalistic sculptural modelling of facial features and hair consistent with the work of engraver David Wynne. The Arabic legend is divided into two parts: the royal name appears in the lower right field below the truncation, while the country name occupies the upper left field. The entire design is enclosed within a rope-pattern inner border and a reeded outer rim.

Additional information

Struck to commemorate the signing of the GATT Uruguay Round agreement in Marrakech in April 1994 — the negotiations that formally established the World Trade Organization. Morocco hosted the concluding ministerial conference, a deliberate diplomatic choice that gave Hassan II's government a prominent role in reshaping global trade architecture at a moment when the king was actively positioning the country as a stable, westward-facing partner.

The gold issue is considerably scarcer than its silver counterpart; Bank Al-Maghrib produced the .900 fine pieces in sharply limited numbers for presentation and collector distribution rather than general release.
