New Series of Indian Coins
By Piyush Jain on July 9, 2011
Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on Friday released a new series of coins with improved design and revised size in the denominations of 50 paise, Re.1, Rs.2, Rs.5, and Rs.10.
These new coins will have the new Rupee Symbol.
The present series of coins of 50 paise, Rs. 1, 2, and 5 contain a flowery design and for Rs.10, the number of petals have been brought down to 10 in place of the existing 15 petals. The parallel lines on the obverse side of the Rs. 10 coin have been removed and the size of Ashok Pillar has been increased
The new coins are of user-friendly size and weight, with improved counterfeit resistance, and the security edging of these coins would be good for better recognition by visually challenged persons.
