Finally got my hands on the new 5-rupee and 10-rupee coins issued very recently by the Reserve Bank of India. Now I am not a professional coin collector who gets mail-order catalogues but as an amateur I happen to think I am a pretty good one. So when my uncle happened to get a specimen of the new coins, I was pretty much ecstatic.
The new 5-rupee coin is of the same cast as those issued 3 years ago except lighter and has a golden finish:-

The new 10-rupee coin is bimetallic and has the now familiar cross symbol which supposedly means "Unity in Diversity" though I have no clue how it says that:-
So if anyone sees such coins in the near future, dont be surprised and just accept them!
