This stamp has the value 25 c (red). It also exists surcharged: '10 cents' (black or blue). I have also seen a 20 c red with inscription 'MOGADOR A MAROC' in the same design.

I think the uncancelled stamps shown above might be forgeries.
5 c green (2 types) 10 c blue (2 types) 20 c brown 25 c red 50 c violet 1 P yellow Surcharged '20 CENTIMOS' on 5 c green
Forgeries exist of these stamps (see for example http://www.filatelia.fi/forglinks/exhibit/page09.jpg).
Forgeries; for example, in the 5 c value, the '5' should have an
upwards curl at the top.

I have seen postcards in the same design in the values 5 c blue and 20 c brown. The Italian consul Mr. Morteo, together with Mr. Spiney (agent of the British post office) started this local post in 25 April 1897. The post was closed on 20 March 1900. For the specialist: the stamps are perforated 14.

If I'm informed correctly, this is a forgery, there are some
windows missing in the wall at the lower central part of the
design (just above the arabic inscription). See also

I have seen several misprints of the 10 c with the '10' double. Strangely enough, only the '10' and not the word 'CENTIMOS' is printed double, example:
Overprinted 'SAFFI' in red on several stamps from other services

5 c green 10 c brown (black?) 15 c blue 25 c brown (black?) 50 c red 1 F olive 5 F lilac
On letter together with a Spanish stamp and a Gibraltar stamp.
Forgeries exist of these stamps.
In the forgeries, the upper left side of the value-tablet does
not touch the tree trunk (in genuine stamps it does). Genuine
stamps are perforated 13 1/2, forgeries 11 1/2 or 12 1/2 (source
Focus on Forgeries by V.E.Tyler). They exist with forged double
ring cancel "FEZ MAROC 17 NOV 99" (see last images
above). In my view, the upper part of the "R" is also
too large in the forgeries.
