Banknote Billet Morocco 50 dirhams Mohamed VI, Roi 2023

The 50 dirham banknote is an issue of Bank Al-Maghrib, the central bank of the Kingdom of Morocco, dated 2023, with actual circulation beginning in 2024. It represents an intermediate denomination within the current Moroccan monetary series.

The portrait of Mohamed VI, King of Morocco, is prominently featured on this banknote, in keeping with Moroccan numismatic tradition, which honours the reigning sovereign on national fiduciary issues. His presence ensures the immediate identification of the note as a legal tender instrument within the Cherifian Kingdom.

This banknote is denominated in dirhams, the official monetary unit of Morocco, with the ISO code MAD. The face value of 50 dirhams represents a denomination commonly used in everyday transactions in Morocco, positioned between the smaller and larger denominations of the range issued by the central bank.

As with all modern banknotes, this issue incorporates security features designed to combat counterfeiting, although their precise characteristics are not always fully disclosed by the issuing authorities. The graphic design of this banknote follows in the tradition of Bank Al-Maghrib productions, the institution responsible since its establishment in 1959 for the management of monetary policy and the issuance of monetary instruments in Morocco.

The year 2023 printed on the banknote corresponds to the official year of issue, while its distribution to the public began in 2024, a delay frequently observed in the production and distribution cycle of banknotes at the international level.
