The 20 Tunisian Franc Gold Coin is a prized addition to any serious coin collection. Originally struck during Tunisia’s time as a French protectorate, these coins were minted between 1891 and 1904 and reflect the rich blend of Arab and European influences that shaped the region’s monetary history. Containing 5.8 grams of pure gold (90% fineness), these coins offer both historical intrigue and tangible investment value.
Why Choose the 20 Tunisian Franc Gold Coin?
The 20 Franc Tunisian gold coin offers unique advantages for investors and collectors. Issued under the authority of the French administration in North Africa, these coins were part of the wider Latin Monetary Union, which sought to standardize gold coinage across multiple countries.
Each coin is minted to precise specifications, with guaranteed weight and purity. Although smaller than many modern bullion coins, the Tunisian 20 Franc holds strong appeal thanks to its historical rarity, limited mintage, and strong secondary market interest. Its status as a discontinued coin also adds to its collectability.
Design of the 20 Franc Tunisian Gold Coin
The obverse of the coin features Arabic inscriptions reflecting Tunisia’s cultural heritage, surrounded by intricate ornamental detailing. The reverse typically includes the date of issue in both the Gregorian and Islamic calendars, reinforcing its historical significance and dual identity as both a colonial and Islamic coin.
While designs may vary slightly between issues, all coins display a high level of craftsmanship characteristic of 19th-century French mints.
Historical Significance of the Tunisian 20 Franc Coin
Tunisia became a French protectorate in 1881, and shortly thereafter, the local gold currency was aligned with the French Franc standard. The 20 Franc gold coin was introduced to facilitate commerce while respecting the region’s traditions and economic systems.
Minted primarily in Paris, these coins served as legal tender within Tunisia and were widely circulated in North Africa. Their production ceased in the early 20th century, making them increasingly scarce. As such, they are highly sought-after by collectors of colonial and Middle Eastern coinage.
