I could not get any confirmation from official sources.

Interesting, off late celebrations of boards although different themes are always welcome, the bench mark for consistency seems to be lost ... anyways another Rs 60 coin lets wait and watch or maybe they will come up with a google of another Rs 20 

[Pabitra]

The coin set is now confirmed.

The denominations will be Rs. 10 and Rs. 60.
Design, date of release and mint still to be known.

UNC/proof coin booking starts tomorrow...by ig mint Mumbai..

[kansal888]

Mumbai Mint has started booking of Proof/Unc sets of Coir Board. The price os Rs 3295 and 2769 respectively. It is surprising that the mint jumped the queue and started booking of newly released coir board coins. They have yet to start booking of many others like Mata Vaishno Devi and Acharya Tulsi...

I was also thinking that Mata Vaishno Devi and Acharya Tulsi would be together next ... but the Mint continues to surprise everyone

I booked my first ever Proof set,

@members, is this an easy process, will I get coin or is this like US H1B visa lot ?. I am not at all aware of the coin booking procedures.

Approx when I will get the coin in Hand, what is the mode of shipment, lot of questions in my mind.

Read through some of the older posts here ... everyone who has booked gets the set.
The time is unpredictable, typically 3 to 9 months. Most issue you even forget you had booked before the friendly post man comes with your parcel.
Booking by DD is faster and if the members name starts with Sanjay Kansal, he gets the first set

LOL....
