Tunisia issues new 20-dinar note

The Central Bank of Tunisia has issued its new banknote of 20 dinar. Noureddine Taboubi, General Secretary of the Tunisian General Labour Union, announced the new 20-dinar banknote last month.

The new note measures 153 mm x 76 mm. The front shows the portrait of trade union leader Farhat Hached, who was assassinated in 1952 by the terrorist group "La Main Rouge". This organization was operated by the foreign Department of the French External Documentation and Counter-Espionage Service.

The back of the note shows a partial view of the amphitheatre of El Jem, in the center a panoramic view of this monument and below, in the foreground, a Corinthian capital of the same monument. More info on all the security features can be found here.
