The ruler Abdul al-Aziz succeeded his father Hassan I in AH 1311. He continued having coins struck in Paris, and added issues struck in London, Berlin, and Birmingham. The denominations were mazunas and dirhams, with one dirham = 50 mazunas. The 'crown' denomination was one rial, which was equal to ten dirhams. During this time, the ruler was honored on the coins not directly by name, but by an word or expression that alluded to him.

Shown is a bronze five mazunas coin from the Fez mint. The date is AH 1320, or 1902 AD. It was lot 1598 and sold for about $219 on Apr 27, 2011 at the Dr. Busso Peus Nachfolger Auction 403. The catalog description reads: "''Marokko Königreich ´Abd al-Aziz, 1311-1326 H/1894-1908 5 Mazunas 1320 H, Fes. Sehr schön/Vorzüglich.'' (kingdom of Morocco, Abd al-Aziz, AH 1311-26, five mazunas of AH 1320, Fez mint. Very fine to extremely fine.)"
