History reference:
The monetary unit of Morocco is the Moroccan dirham. The history of the national currency of Morocco is as interesting as the historical path of the kingdom itself. Despite the fact that the current ...currency in the country began to be used relatively recently, the history of the monetary system in this country is very old. Until 1921, the Moroccan rial was used in monetary circulation in Morocco. After 1921, the Moroccan rial is replaced by the Moroccan franc at the rate of 1 rial = 5 francs. In 1956, France recognized the independence of Morocco and reunified with Spanish Morocco, as a result of which the Spanish peseta was introduced into the money circulation in the ratio of 10 francs = 1 peseta. In 1960, the Moroccan dirham was introduced, consisting of 100 francs, and in 1974 the franc was replaced by a centime.
