yep they do
.. it also means that its time to save on the stainless steel 5 rs coins (wavey waters)... pple (rightly) complain that coin is very similar to 50p stainless steel coin and probably the reason for the new design/metal and the stainless steel 5rs coin could possibly be phased out..
wonder how a commemorative design would like on this metal...
... the last time brass (or its combination) was used in indian coins was the 20p in 1971?
couldnt sleep last night
.. all excited about posting the pics
... first time i ever had a coin so quickly after it was released... usually takes some time for the coin to come in circulation (an e.g. is the 10rs bimetallic)
