| Additional information |
Mohammed VI ascended the Moroccan throne in July 1999 following the death of his father Hassan II, who had ruled for 38 years. The fifteenth anniversary issue falls squarely within a period of significant constitutional change — the 2011 reforms, prompted partly by Arab Spring pressures, transferred meaningful executive authority away from the palace and granted the prime minister's position to the leader of the largest parliamentary party.
Bank Al-Maghrib has issued anniversary commemoratives at five-year intervals for this reign, each struck to the same 28.28g sterling specification shared across dozens of Commonwealth and Francophone royal commemoratives worldwide.
