Beware while accepting the coin of Rs 5 denomination. It could be a fake one. Earlier, there have been reports regarding the circulation of fake notes of Rs 500 and even Rs 1,000 in the country. Coins of Rs 5 denomination seem to be a latest addition to this list of fake currency.
Such fake coins have the national emblem on both the sides. But these have complete resemblance with real Rs 5 coin. These seems to have been minted by coupling two 50 paise coins. If accepted in bulk, no one can differentiate the real one from the fake one. Usually, people never properly look at such coins and pocket these after a casual glance. But next time when you accept such a coin, have a careful look on its both sides.
