Overview

Historical significance

This coin is part of the 'Unity in Diversity' series introduced in 2007. It represents India's cultural mosaic. This specific design was controversial because some interpreted the cross-like symbols on the reverse (not pictured, but part of this series) as a Christian symbol, leading to a design change in later years.

Estimated value

Face value (approx. $0.06 USD). While some collectors look for specific mint marks, most circulated coins of this year remain common and hold little numismatic premium.

Care & preservation

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning with harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as this can damage the surface and reduce any collector value. If handling, hold by the edges to prevent oils from your skin from marking the metal.
