Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin depicts a portrait of Muhammad VI, the Bey of Tunis, wearing a fez and a cloak, while the reverse side features an Arabic inscription surrounded by a wreath of olive branches, which is a common motif in European coinage. This blending of styles reflects the cultural influences of Tunisia's history as a crossroads between Europe and the Middle East.
