My Dear 10 rupee Coin

The new 10 rupee coins recently issued have been circulating gradually. The Gold-silver coins fascinate everybody. Those who receive the coins don’t want to give them away. The designers have made a mistake by designing it attractive. The moment my husband introduced a few coins to me I said wow and I kept them with me. I don’t feel like giving them away. At this rate the coins will not be going to circulate. The coins will be dearer to all until they get old and the gold colour fades and become common. It is all steel in gold colour like a wolf in sheep’s skin. The coins that were issued till now couldn’t fascinate anybody. The gold colour is the reason. Though it is only gold coloured people don’t want to lose it. If it were made of pure gold what would have happened. All beautiful things are attractive to our eyes. Nature has given us eyes to see beautiful things. No wonder we get ancient pots with gold coins when digging the soil. People might have hoarded the coins and buried them in the soil.

Coin minting is said to be started even before the dynastic rule. But coins were not attractive. Now with advanced technology, not only coins, but everything can be made perfect and eye-catching. There were gold, silver and copper coins during the dynastic rule. The gold and silver coins might have been banned because of the attraction towards the gold and silver. Copper coins of the British time were used till they had been removed in 60s. There were copper coins that valued ¾ of a rupee with a hole in the middle like poppins. When they had gone out of value women got an idea to make purse using them like sequins.
