The most valuable and popular coins
The most valuable Sahara coins and sought after by collectors according to Foronum statistics are the following:
The monetary history of the Sahara is complex and closely linked to its colonial past and the political changes in the region. Throughout the 20th century and up to the present day, the Sahara has experienced various monetary systems, reflecting its turbulent history and the influences of foreign powers.
Currencies used in the Sahara
During the Spanish colonial period, Western Sahara used the Saharawi peseta, a variant of the Spanish peseta. After Spain's withdrawal in 1975, the region underwent a period of monetary transition. Currently, in the areas controlled by Morocco, the Moroccan dirham is used, while in the territories administered by the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR), the Sahrawi dinar has been proposed for use, although its circulation is limited.
Relevant numismatic milestones
An important milestone in Saharawi numismatics was the issuance of commemorative coins by the SADR in 1992, to commemorate the 17th anniversary of the founding of the republic. These coins, although not legal tender, are highly sought-after collector's items by numismatists interested in the history of the Sahara. In addition, the Saharawi peseta from the colonial period remains an object of interest to collectors, representing a unique chapter in the monetary history of Africa.
Sahara is a country that does not exist today. It is now part of the Morocco old coins.
