Tunisian dinar

The abbreviation "DT" is often used in Tunisia, although writing "dinar" after the amount is also acceptable (TND is less colloquial, and tends to be used more in financial circles); the abbreviation "TD" is also mentioned in a few places, but is less frequently used, given the common use of the French language in Tunisia, and the French derivation of "DT" (i.e., "").
Economy of Tunisia
GDP per capita soared by more than 380% in the seventies (1970–1980: USD 280–1,369). But this proved unsustainable and it collapsed to a cumulative 10% growth in the turbulent eighties (1980–1990: USD 1,369–1,507), rising again to almost 50% cumulative growth in the nineties (1990–2000: USD 1,507–2,245), signifying the impact of successful diversification.
