3 Falus - Moulay Sulayman Tetuan

Moulay Sulayman's reign was marked by deliberate isolationism — he curtailed trade with European powers and suppressed the Atlantic port economies his predecessors had cultivated. Tetuan's mint operated under these constraints, producing issues that served regional commerce rather than any broader monetary ambition. The falus denominations of this period are notoriously inconsistent in weight and module, struck on roughly prepared flans with little concern for uniformity, a chronic condition at Moroccan provincial mints throughout the Alaouite period.
