Rachid Sbihi, a Moroccan historian and numismatic specialist, says that the decision taken then, was to keep the red-only flag as a symbol for the Royal Makhzen while the national flag would bear a 6-branch green star in its center. It would stay like this until the royal Dahir of 1915 would forever change the 6-branch star to a 5-branch star.
The 6-branch star used in the Moroccan flag is also known as the Seal of Solomon (Sulaïman in Arabic) or the Star of David. However, this is a misconception since the 6-branch star is a symbol of life, wisdom and good health common to all three major monotheistic religions. The Seal of Solomon was also stamped on the 100 and 200 francs coins as well as on some Makhzen stamps until 1954.
