| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylized composition commemorating the 18th anniversary of the 7 November 1987 political change dominates the reverse. At center, a large globe rests within the hull of a stylized ship, with abstract motifs suggesting satellite dishes, circuit-board lines, and a modernizing nation in the background. To the left, a bird silhouette rises against the ship's bow. The dual dates 1426 / 2005 appear at the lower left in the field. The Arabic commemorative legend الذكرى 18 لتحول السابع من نوفمبر (18th Anniversary of the 7 November Change) is rendered in bold relief across the lower portion of the reverse. |

Tunisia's "Coup d'état" commemorative series is notably candid by the standards of official coinage — few governments mint gold coins that openly name the mechanism by which the current leadership came to power. Zine El Abidine Ben Ali seized control on November 7, 1987, deposing Habib Bourguiba by invoking a medical incapacity clause, with a team of doctors signing a certificate of senility. The date became a national holiday rebranded as the "Change," and Ben Ali minted it aggressively.
This 2005 issue marks the 18th anniversary of that event. Ben Ali would be ousted himself in January 2011, the first leader toppled by the Arab Spring, rendering the entire commemorative series an accidental chronicle of a finished regime.
