| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Hassan II facing left, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. Arabic legends arc along the left and lower-right periphery within a rope-beaded inner border, identifying the monarch by his royal title. The portrait is boldly modelled with fine detail in the hair and facial features. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the United Nations, this piece was part of a coordinated global commemorative program in which dozens of member states released collector coins simultaneously in 1995. Morocco's participation reflected Hassan II's careful positioning of the kingdom as a diplomatically engaged, Western-friendly state throughout the Cold War decades — a posture that paid dividends in foreign aid and political insulation.
The .925 silver specification follows the standard adopted by Banque Al-Maghrib for its commemorative program of the 1990s, a series that remains modestly collected outside specialist Moroccan holdings.
