Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 15th 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. The coin's design features a portrait of Bourguiba on one side and the Tunisian flag on the other, symbolizing the significant political change that took place during that time.
