Indian coins are mainly produced in 4 cities

1. Delhi
2. Mumbai
3. Hyderabad
4. Kolkata

The production in city puts an identification mark under the year of issue. Coins produced in:

1. Delhi - have a dot
2. Mumbai - have a diamond
3. Hyderabad - have a star
4. Kolkata - Nothing beneath the year

Isn’t it amazing?

Most of us don’t know this........Now put your hand inside your pocket/ wallet/ purse and check out!!!!

    Also using coins is better than using notes because it lasts about 30 years in circulation. As for the notes, they get torn and worn easily.
