| Reverse description | Central field displaying a multi-line Arabic inscription in Maghribi script, recording the sultan's name and titles along with the mint name Marrakesh (Marrakech) and the Hijri date. The legend is arranged in the compact, overlapping calligraphic style characteristic of Alaoui dynasty hammered dirhams. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with two pierced holes at the rim consistent with secondary use as an ornament. The strike is typical of hand-hammered Moroccan silver coinage of the early 19th century. |
