If you wished to have a special gold coin in your home to mark the Golden Jubilee Celebration of Gujarat which is just two weeks away, here is the way. You can buy the coin of your choice that is going to be available in the market soon.

The government, along with ADAG (Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group) Reliance Money company, has planned to come out with the Gujarat Golden Jubilee Swiss gold coins. Chief minister Narendra Modi has already approved the design.

The coins will be available in different sizes and in two different designs. In one design, there will be embossing of Mahatma Gandhi and in the other, Somnath temple. The other side of the coin will have the Gujarat Golden Jubilee Celebration symbol — kalash.

"The company has taken patent for these coins. However, the government wishes that the company should not insist on patent rights as the purpose of the government is that every citizen has a right to buy it and any jeweller or company can do it,'' said highly placed sources.

The sources further said that chief minister Modi and ADAG chairman Anil Ambani are likely to release the coins in the first week of May.

Reliance already sells gold coins in different categories, which according to the company claims are  99.99% pure, 24 carat, Swiss gold coins. For the celebration, the coins will be available in 0.5g, 1g, 5gm and 8gm denominations. These 24 carat, 99.99% pure and internationally certified gold coins will cater to a large segment of society.
