New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued a new coin for the denomination of Rs 10. The new coin has been based on the theme of 'Unity in Diversity'.

It has an outer ring metal composition. It’s bi-metallic or simply put, made up two metals.

The face of the coin is divided into three portions. The central portion bears the "Lion Capitol" of Ashoka Pillar.

RBI says the new coin is a stylised representation of "Unity in Diversity", a defining characteristic of India.
