Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the iconic image of the Algerian resistance leader, Houari Boumédiène, on its obverse side. This coin was issued in 1991 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Boumédiène's birth, who played a significant role in Algeria's struggle for independence from France. The coin's design serves as a tribute to his legacy and a symbol of Algeria's fight for freedom.
