My vote was for the choice of the subject, rather than design. I liked the subject of education, because it is the key to India's future. Of the two issues on education, the Centenary of the University of Delhi won my vote because 100 years is a genuine jubilee.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

i was confused between Pranavananda and Jain acharya ones, not due to the designs, which frankly, are very run of the mill
but because both became interesting as the institutions proposing the coins had become the sellers
in case of pranavanda, the institution made a killing, selling the sets at a far higher price compared to the price which the mint eventually sold at the website. the prices were increased by them when the coins were not supplied by the mint anymore.
in case of Jain acharya, the institution was shocked that the mint went back on its commitment to provide them the coins to sell before listing on the website

but pranavanda wins, as the it is first time i have seen a dynamic pricing strategy by a religious institution to optimize numismatic revenue
