Reverse description The numeral '20' dominates the central field in large bold relief, with the Arabic denomination legend 'عشرون مليما' (twenty millimes) inscribed immediately below. A decorative band of stylized foliate and palmette motifs encircles the central device, rendered in a traditional Tunisian arabesque pattern. An additional Arabic inscription band occupies the lower portion of the field beneath the denomination. The design is framed by a beaded rim running along the outer edge of the coin.

Additional information

Tunisia shifted from solid brass to brass-plated steel for this denomination as a cost-reduction measure, a change reflected in the new KM number suffix. The magnetic core makes sorting and authentication trivial for vending machines and automated counting equipment — one practical reason the transition met little resistance in circulation.
