An Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Awanish Sharan shared an image of six different Indian paise minted since the year 1968. The people on Twitter found themselves to be nostalgic after this and shared views regarding this. In the image, you can see six coins: two paise, three paise, five paise, ten paise, twenty five paise, and fifty paise. Sharan shared the picture just a few hours ago and since then his post has collected more than one million views and over 15,000 likes. Netizens were quick to react in the comment section. While some shared memories of buying something with the denominations, others simply wrote, “gone are the beautiful era of 90s”. “God! So old. I remember we used to get chingum for 20 paise,” wrote one user. “50 paise – Eclairs, Paan pasand, mango bite,” commented an internet user.
Another user said, “You missed 1 Paisa coin I guess. I had 10 such in class I and I felt I was a very rich person. Those were the days,” while a fourth added, “Nostalgia sir.. Sabhi use Kiya Hai (Have used all of them).” There were many who went down the memory lane as Awanish shared this fascinating image. In the caption, he asked, “With which of these coins have you bought anything?” The post is now viral with multiple responses.
Kuch to alag baat thi ye sikke me!! Mutthi me ho to sab mumkin lagta tha,” wrote a Twitter user. Another person wrote, “51 yrs of my life, I have used all of them.”
Meanwhile, earlier, a man in the United Kingdom unearthed the priceless treasure buried near Chippenham in Wiltshire. The 68-year-old metal detectorist named Tony House was shocked when he found the stash of ‘Tealby Pennies’ – named after the Tealby in Lincolnshire, where more than 5,000 similar coins were dug up in 1807.
