[Pabitra]

thanks.
You did not avail the opportunity left to you to give details like denominations which are 100 and 5 Rupees.

Here is the release function image

[kishoretkm]

Yes, I was little confusion on those images, like whether its 10 or 5 rupee,
even though its not look like bimetalic image, I should take a confirm and mentioned in my previous post.

Anyway Thanks sister for ur confirmation

Note: I expect it should be Rs 10 coin (Add one more count to my Ten rupees album), but its not.

thanks.

For a minute I was thinking does it read "Birth Cenr...." before realizing that the text is put up by Raviji and not part of the Release.

Bookings are Open from 17-Aug to 17-Oct. Proof at 3878 and UNC at 3419

Strangely the price of Swami Chinmayananda set is cheaper than Tata. Looks like it's cheaper to strike a Rs 10 coin vs a Rs 5 coin 

[Figleaf]

More likely, price is set by administrative procedure and has little or nothing to do with cost.
