Closest I could find. It appears that having the Seal of Solomon on both sides is diagnostic, as only Suleyman II used that design. Based on the weight, yours is probably a 1 falus.

It may not be a coin at all.

It is a common symbol used in many ways. I think this is a talisman or charm.

Weird...just because it has 1 dot on both sides?

Kommodore, I waited for someone to give you an answer because I have little knowledge of Moroccan coins though I was aware that the six pointed star was sometimes used on their coins. I could not find an exact match to yours so I waited.

I have seen this symbol in other places like I showed in the links it is used by the Free Masons and I have seen it called the Seal of David, and The seal of solomon, and as a demonic or satanic symbol. As with all symbols it has different meanings to different groups.

Often followers of reconstructed ancient religons will carry such things as talisman or other 'power' objects. There are companies that provide such things

The above link has a picture of the Moroccan coin that I am familiar with along with other information to be taken as one will. It may help you or confuse you.
