there are already photos of such a coin in the comments, but it is not in the table of years.
when i tried to add this combination of years i saw the message: "The list of years is complete and has been verified. Most requests to add new year entries are sent for the wrong coin type. If you are sure you own this coin with a date that is not listed here, you can ask to have it added through the forum and include a picture of your coin in your message."
Given there's an image of this coin in the comments and SCWC doesn't list a 1339 (1921), can I suggest that the line 1339 (1921) be modified to 1339 (1920)?

Given that the smaller version of the 5 centimes was also issued in 1339 (1920), it seems unlikely the larger piece continued into 1921. If we change the year line to what we know to exist, then if someone actually has a 1339 (1921) coin, they can post an image and we can add it. Otherwise, we'll be stuck with a year line we can't verify. A quick Google search brings up no hits other than Numista for Tunisia, 5 centimes, 1921.

That was what I would have thought from KM but having them listed as "mint letters" made me wonder. Seems this page needs a bit of work. Unfortunately, there isn't a referee listed for Tunisian coins, so I'm afraid one of the admins is going to have to sort this out. Thanks to omant for spotting the problem.

Quote: "Idolenz"Where would the 6 come from? There is no 5 centimes from 1336 in that form.
Well seen, and it can not be a reign year either. There is an image of a 5 centimes 1920 - 1339 (torch) here: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces4911.html
in the comments section, but I cannot see any 6 or 7 numerals of any kind. I've also tried to count berries and dots in the writings, so far nothing found....
The values in SCWC vs. the frequencies on the Numista page make no sense. I spent 1/2 hour on ebay and couldn't fine any overdates of this coin listed. ٨/٦ or ٨/٧ should be pretty obvious.
To me it looks like an error i SCWC, taken over by numista. I have just stopped investigating further (searching for all images of 5 centimes 1338 1920 with the torch finding none). RSIRIAN1 has covered the searches for overdates, so that's it, until somebody more clever shows up.
I fixed the wrong year, but a word about those 6/7 - on french side, they are clearly marked as overdates in the line comments.
Speaking of the French side, they also have Sec (Monnaies et jetons des colonies françaises) catalog reference numbers for all year lines except the ١٣٣٨/٦ and ١٣٣٨/٧ overdates.
