I have 5 Ouguiya (small type) KM# 3a in two types.The first type is from 2009 and is Copper plated steel.The second type is from 2012 and is Brass plated steel.The two coins are 24 mm.There is a difference between the coins and in the letters and numbers.
Citeer: "AmerSalmeh"Hence type 1 measurement is wrong on numista page by 1mm and can be changed thats all
Can someone else confirm this diameter?
but rest of details match your coins.
you have type 1 and 2
According to Schön the 2009 20 Ouguiya was minted in Kremnica while the 2010 and 2014 were minted in Paris. The Q in 2009 5, 10, 10 Ouguiya coins match your 2009 image, but my 2010 20 Ouguiya matches your 2010 5 Ouguiya image.
Maybe the mint for 2010 and later for those three denominations is Paris. Or maybe new dies were prepared and distributed to Kremnica for the 5 and 10 and Paris for the 20.
Citeer: "yvon"I got those;
5 Ouguiya 1974 diam. 25 mm brass
5 ,, 1984 25 brass
5 ,, 1993 25 brass
5 ,, 1999 25 brass
5 ,, 2003 25 brass
5 ,, 2005 25 brass pl. steel
5 ,, 2009 24 brass pl. steel
If it is from any help.
The Numista catalog says otherwise.
5 Ouguiya (1973-2003) - Aluminium-bronze 25 mm
5 Ouguiya (2004-2005) - Copper plated steel 25 mm
5 Ouguiya (2009-2012) - Brass plated steel 24 mm
I don't understand why the information diverges.
And my coins are with two different metals.

There is no difference. Aluminium-bronze is easily confused with brass, because the colour is,
more or less, the same. The only way to figure out is by XRF-test. In a circulated coin it is also
very easy to confuse brass or copperplated-steel...

OK,I found out about metals.Then why are the letters and numbers different in my coins?

You can not compare different years, yours are 2009 and 2012 so ther is some difference...

Citeer: "coinmaniacbg"Any other collectors' opinions?Will this variation be added to the catalog?
I just added images of the two Q styles for 5, 10, and 20 Ouguiya to the pages.
(The modification requests pending and will be processed in due time.)
