MOROCCO: Muhammad V, 1927-1962, AR 100 francs, 1953/AH1372, KM-E44, ESSAI, mintage of only 1,100 pieces, NGC graded Proof 65, R. This type does not exist as "proof", but because both the Arabic and French letters have a frosty surface, it can easily be misunderstood as "proof." High grades of this type are often graded as "SP", which means "specimen strike", and that is more appropriate than simple "MS" for "mint state."
