Less
than a decade when the new coin series was introduced in 2011; the coins series
have been completely redesigned in 2019. The full series may get minted from
2020. For the first time it also includes Rs 20 denomination in Bi-Metallic.
The coins are supposed to be friendly for Blind. However, given that there are
4 different series of coins in circulation, it would be tough even for the
ordinary person to distinguish the coins.
Surprisingly
the 50 piase denomination is eliminated in the new series. Although the minting
of 50 paise was stopped by 2016; it now looks to be completely out.
The coin details are as below;
It is not clear if there would be a collectors pack released for booking.
Release Function:
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi releasing the new series of visually impaired friendly circulation coins, at a function, at 7 Lok Kalyan Marg, New Delhi on March 07, 2019. The Union Minister for Finance and Corporate Affairs, Shri Arun Jaitley and the Minister of State for Finance and Shipping, Shri P. Radhakrishnan are also seen
