Comments On List of Indian Commemorative Coins

[kansal888]

Hi Friends

The list uploaded my MS (Mr Shariff) is of circulated commemoratives; whereas my list is of non-circulating commemoratives. Therefore it will be better if the two lists are maintained as two different sticky topics

The list uploaded my MS (Mr Shariff) is of circulated commemoratives; whereas my list is of non-circulating commemoratives. Therefore it will be better if the two lists are maintained as two different sticky topics

Since the two lists are maintained in two different posts,I don't think that we need two different topics for them.Personally,I'm not in favor of too many sticky threads in one board,but if all members think that they should be separated,I'l do so..

The list of commemorative coins is OK,but no information issued these coins by different mints.That needs to be complied.The list of regular coins of all denominations is also not available as well.I don't know coins issued by different mints of 25 and 50 Paises.  Mints and RBI should publish such list periodically which will help both traders and collectors.

[Bimat]

Indian mints do not disclose any information regarding mintage,mint-marks and other related information.I remember SanjayJi once had mentioned that they do so for some security reasons

Aditya

[Bimat]

I'd like to link the table that Sanjay has created in List of Indian commemorative coins with my thread on Personalities & Events on Indian coins.... I want each row of his table clickable such that it takes the user to the relevant post in the Personalities thread. However, I can't edit someone else's post

Only moderator(s) can do that...

Aditya

[Bimat]

I'll see if I can do that today and tomorrow..That will take some time so have some patience...

Aditya

[Figleaf]

Excellent added value, but Aditya is right. It is time consuming and his company makes great demands on him.

@Aditya: If you are handy with Excel, you can take this route, which is a time saver. If you want to use this method, I'd be happy to convert the table to Excel for you.

I have updated Kansal's post partially, if there are any comments, please let me know. Note that the list is not up to date, seems that all the 2011 issues (and may be some of the 2010 issues) are not yet listed in the table.

Aditya

[Abhay]

Yes, I tried to do as much as possible. Now I think, only the new issues after 2010 are left, because the list is not updated. I will try to update the list also.

I provided an addendum list to include all coins issues till 9:00 am on 27 Jan 2012. Moderators are requested to merge it with my original list.
