My coins' wish list...

Strategically, I got the Lokmanya Tilak coin and the new one with wave like structure which I had mentioned in earlier post. Strategically I say because, its actually strategy. I have a tea vendor near my office that I have confided in. We share coins whenever we get duplicates. And obviously he is the one getting most coins in duplicate.

Today there is news of release of a new Rs.5/- coin in circulation... It’s about 150 years of 1987 war. It sports images of Tatya Tope, Laxmi bai and Bahadurshah Jafar. Man, this is in my wish list now. The others in wish list are

• Mahatma Basaveshwara
• Jagath Guru Sree Narayana Gurudev
• Golden Jubilee Celebration of Khadi And Village Industries Commission (This sports image of Gandhi and charkha)
• 75 Year of Dandi March (This sports image of Dandi March. Visit Mumbai Mint site. It has picture of coin.) ( I got this coin in mid Octomber 2008. And I remember of another coin, a 50 paise coin with Gandhi's face on it... I had that coin but now seem to have lost it :( )
• The Air Force coin
• Maharana Pratap
• Veer Durgadas
• ONGC (this comes from Kolkata mint)
• K. Kamraj
  Most of these coins come only in Rs.5/-. If there are one rupee as well, they are welcome too.
