Beschrijving voorzijde Hammered silver flan of irregular, roughly circular form bearing a central device composed of interlocking floral and foliate elements in low relief, characteristic of the Alaoui hammered coinage of Sidi Mohammed III. A crescent motif is visible above the central design, with additional vegetal ornaments flanking the primary device. The field is flat and largely plain, the strike uneven due to the hand-hammered technique, resulting in areas of weak or missing detail toward the periphery.

Aanvullende informatie

Sidi Mohammed III — more properly Mohammed ben Abdallah — undertook a systematic reform of Moroccan coinage beginning in the 1770s, establishing a network of regional mints to supply a fragmented economy where Spanish, Dutch, and Ottoman coins circulated alongside domestic issues. Tetuan's mint served the northern corridor, heavily influenced by Mediterranean trade and proximity to the Spanish presidio of Ceuta. The mazuna denomination sat at the fractional base of this reformed structure.

The B-prefix in Krause reflects ongoing scholarly uncertainty about the precise attribution sequence across mint cities for this type.
