| Additional information |
Morocco's first crown prince in nearly three decades, Moulay Hassan was born on May 8, 2003 — a birth of considerable political weight given that Mohammed VI had ascended the throne in 1999 without a direct heir. The commemorative issue followed within months, making it one of the faster royal birth responses in modern North African numismatic history.
The .99999 fineness is notable — five-nines purity was unusual for Moroccan commemorative silver at this date and places this piece among the finest-composition issues Bank Al-Maghrib had produced to that point.
