Aanvullende informatie

The "coup d'état" framing is unusual for a commemorative coin — most governments euphemize. Tunisia did not. Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's removal of Habib Bourguiba on November 7, 1987 was officially classified as a medical coup, with a panel of doctors certifying Bourguiba mentally unfit for office rather than the military forcing him out at gunpoint. By 2007, Ben Ali had governed for twenty years on the strength of that legitimacy claim, and this gold issue was part of a broader state apparatus reinforcing it.

Four years after this coin was struck, Ben Ali fled to Saudi Arabia following the Jasmine Revolution.
