Discussion: Workshop on Commemorative Coins: Kolkata Mint

[kansal888]

Dear friends

Kolkata mint is organizing a half day workshop on 7 Feb 12 on commemorative coins. The participants are being selected on 'first come first serve' basis.  You have to send an application to the GM of mint. They published an ad in the papers recently.

The ad states that the aim of the workshop is to provide "better services to our sincere customer".

I hope they will teach you how to make the dies of important commemorative coins. 
At the end of the workshop, they will also give a coin of Land Vital Resources as a token of love.      

Regards
Sanjay Kansal

I can imagine Sanjay at the head of the line to enroll ... And then in the front row seat taking notes like a good student

Thanks for letting us know,.. Apols couldn't get back to you last week

Paise,
I feel that instead of Kolkata mint organizing a workshop for coin collectors, it will be much better if coin collectors  organize a workshop for the staff of Kolkata mint.

Regards,
Akash

if it is really important then give some details i will try to send someone from my staff.  if they come back empty handed i will forward the bill to you

[kansal888]

You can forward the bill directly to GM of Kolkata Mint..  
Meanwhile, send all your staff to Mumbai mint to purchase the goodies offered by them

[Drogunks]

Can somebody give me the link, where I can send a request to Gm of Kolkata?

just send your request to kansalji  .  he is more powerful than GM.  He is the only one with the unissued SAARC set.  it makes even the 1993 parliament set look cheap. 

[Drogunks]

I have not even heard of this SAARC set. What does it commemorate? When was it minted?
