Comment

NOTE: Krause lists a similar coin (KM#421) with Silver(.900), "Arabic legends", and a mintage of 21 only. However, its existence is not confirmed, as both coins have the exact same picture on Krause.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the International Year of the Child, which was declared by the United Nations in 1982 to raise awareness about the needs and rights of children around the world. The coin's design features an image of a child and the words "International Year of the Child" in both Arabic and French, reflecting Tunisia's commitment to promoting the well-being and education of children.
