Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 14th 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 installation of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali as the new president. The coin's design features a portrait of Ben Ali on one side and the Tunisian coat of arms on the other, along with the anniversary date and the motto "Fidelity, Liberty, Justice" in French. The use of French on the coin reflects Tunisia's history as a French protectorate from 1881 to 1956, and the country's ongoing cultural and linguistic ties with France.
