(Translation: Mohammed VI Kingdom of Morocco)
Reverse description The crowned coat of arms of the Kingdom of Morocco occupies the central field, featuring a green pentagram on a red shield flanked by two rampant lions, supported by a scroll bearing the royal motto in Arabic, all surmounted by a royal crown. The denomination '250' appears in Western-Arabic numerals below the arms, with the value spelled out in Arabic script beneath. The upper legend in Arabic and the lower circular legend in Latin script record the birth of Princess Lalla Khadija, with the Hijri date '10 Safar 1428' and the Gregorian date '28 Fevrier 2007' inscribed in the lower field. Two five-pointed stars flank the arms at mid-field, and the entire design is framed by a beaded inner border.

Additional information

Issued to commemorate the birth of Princess Lalla Khadija, Mohammed VI's first child, born in 2007. The coin was struck in five-nines fine silver — a purity specification far beyond the .999 standard typically used for bullion, suggesting a deliberate prestige distinction for this particular royal commemorative series. Bank Al-Maghrib has produced birth commemoratives for the royal family intermittently since the mid-twentieth century, but the .99999 specification appears uniquely applied here.
