Not every society on the planet Earth uses the Gregorian Christian Calendar. Morocco is a Moslem country and prefers to use the Moslem Calendar that dates from the time of Mohammed. The Moslem year 1371 translates as the Gregorian calendar year of 1951.
So, you have a 1371 (1951) Morocco 20 francs. It is a one year issue, was struck in an alloy of aluminum-bronze and is valued in the coin market in average circulated condition at about US 10 cents. Note that there is also an essai of this coin (like a proof) that comes packaged for collectors. Value range $25-$35.
