Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 13th 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 under Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. The coin's design features an Arabic inscription and a gold-colored portrait of Ben Ali, who ruled Tunisia from 1987 until his ouster in the 2011 Arab Spring uprising.
