Morocco is usually easily recognizable. I never would have guessed that one. That's a nice looking coin.

Yes, a pretty coin, quite tiny, actually. I think it's intersting that it has Arabic writing, but the 5 and the dates are in western numerals.

Thanks, all.

The legend above the coat of arms says "Kingdom of Morocco" (al-Mamlakat al-Maghribiyat). The coin is an FAO commemorative, so the other side probably says "food for all" or "grow more food" or some such similar slogan.

The other side says 5 centemes ( Khamas Centimat) as much as I can read it from the pic, a larger pic could be helpful to confirm
