Additional information

Mohammed VI ascended the throne on July 30, 1999, following the death of his father Hassan II, who had ruled Morocco for 38 years. The twentieth anniversary issue falls in the same year Morocco's parliament ratified sweeping constitutional amendments — a belated institutional response to the 2011 Arab Spring protests that had forced the palace into significant political concessions.

Bank Al-Maghrib has issued anniversary commemoratives at the five-year intervals of this reign with notable consistency. The .925 silver specification here mirrors the weight standard shared with several contemporaneous Moroccan commemoratives, suggesting shared planchet sourcing rather than a bespoke minting decision.
