Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 16th 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 and a gold-colored image of a palm tree, which is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in many Arab cultures.
