Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the 1987 coup d'état in Tunisia, which led to the overthrow of the country's long-time president, Habib Bourguiba, and the establishment of a new government led by Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. The coin's design features an Arabic inscription that translates to "13th Anniversary of the Revolution" and a depiction of the Tunisian flag.
