Friends, I wish to know the metal composition of the Saheed Bhagat Singh, 5 rs NCLT coin. Is it cupro-nickel or Nickel-Brass?

My observations:

(a) I tried booking online through website of Hyd Mint. As soon as I entered my order details, I got two para of software code error (@#$%^tt66) in blue, green and brown fonts. So I will try the DD route on monday

(b) Some of the pics on Hyd Mint's website show a cameo / frosting effect. It looks nice with the star of Hyderabad.

(c) Hyderabad guys have uploaded the pic of Bhagat Singh Kolkata coins instead of their own.

(d) Oracle Baba are you planning to migrate from being a collector to a dealer ( grass may be greener that side)?

If oracle is planning for charity, I am first in the queue.

After our last discussion, it was very easy for me to figure out where the green grass is    I thought you were going to be my partner in crime.  You will supply me the rare sets and I will sell? 

i booked my sets online no problem.  lets see when the coin comes and if they are true to the pictures.  Otherwise thousands will have gone down the drain.  I am beginning to dislike coin booking now.  I am sure noida mint will join in the fun in a few years.  If they all come out with 2 coins sets costing 7500 then i will become a dealer

Hyd Mint has issued a clarification that Rs 250/Rs300/Rs350 is the price of 'one single coin' and not 'one coin set'

Mr. Oracle, if u r planning  to order 100 pieces from Saheed Bhagat Singh, why should we, the members of WOC take the pains of booking that coin? We can easily get one coin from ORACLE the GREAT as a free gift in 2012!!! Am I correct?

If some of the collectors are planning to buy 100 sets in bulk and wait for the prices to go up so that they can sell and earn hefty profit later then I don't know why we discuss, crib and cry over the fact that dealers buy in bulk and block the coins and wait for the prices to go up. Aren't some of us doing the same thing?  I could be logically wrong but its a random thought that came to my mind while reading some of the above posts. Cheers!!

Hi,

As said before I had gone personally to Hyd Mint and Booked the Coins.
None were there to book the same at the time I went but saw some
orders that were placed at the mint mostly they were for 50 pcs and
100 pcs Bhagat Singh. I have noted down few mobile numbers from their
order form too. I have booked 3 complete sets which cost me 9750 Rs.

As per the past record of Hyderabad Mint, they are likely to be circulation coins (fresh off the mint) in blister packing. I don't think they will be uncirculated coins (let alone the proof coins).

However, the photographs uploaded by Hyderabad mint on its website shows frosting / cameo on some coins
