Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed right-facing bust of King Mohammed VI occupying the central field, rendered in high relief with naturalistic hair texture and facial modelling characteristic of contemporary proof coinage. An Arabic inscription identifying the monarch as Commander of the Faithful arcs to the right and left of the effigy in elegant script. The dual date '2010-1431' appears in the lower exergue, combining the Gregorian and Hijri calendar years. The field is highly polished with a mirror-like proof finish, and the design is framed by the same rope-pattern border as the obverse.

Additional information

Mohammed VI ascended the Moroccan throne in July 1999 following the death of his father Hassan II, whose 38-year reign had defined the country's postcolonial political structure. Bank Al-Maghrib has issued commemorative silver pieces marking enthronement anniversaries at irregular intervals, and the eleventh is an unconventional choice — neither a round number nor a traditional milestone — suggesting the series follows internal commemorative logic rather than any fixed schedule.
