| Obverse description | Central field bears the Arabic religious legend 'أحد أحد' (Ahad Ahad, meaning 'One, One' — an affirmation of divine unity) rendered in bold, angular script characteristic of Moroccan hammered coinage. The inscription is enclosed within a circular inner border composed of small pointed denticles, itself surrounded by a plain outer rim. The flan is irregular in shape, as typical of hand-struck Alaoui dirhams of this period, with flat, uneven fields resulting from the hammering technique. |
