The Central Bank of Tunisia issued Circular No. 2018-02 to mandate the issuance and legal tender status of new Tunisian coins denominated at fifty, twenty, and ten millimes. Effective March 19, 2018, these coins will circulate concurrently with existing denominations while retaining identical alloy, weight, diameter, edge, design, and inscription specifications, differing only in the dual year of issue marked as 2017-1438. This directive operationalizes the February 2017 Board of Directors resolution and aligns with Articles 13, 14, 15, and 63 of the Central Bank's governing Law No. 2016-35.
