Interesting fact
The 50 Dinars coin was issued to commemorate the 12th anniversary of the 1987 coup d'état in Tunisia, which led to the overthrow of the country's long-time president, Habib Bourguiba. The coin's design features a portrait of Bourguiba on one side and the Tunisian flag on the other, along with the anniversary date and a mention of the coup d'état in French. It's made of gold (.900) and weighs 21.00 grams. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists and those interested in Tunisian history.
