Last Updated 28 February 2019, 08:43 IST

Mahatma Gandhi’s fans and admirers across the world will have a unique opportunity to possess the first-ever Euro Souvenir Indian notes that celebrate the Mahatma’s 150th birth anniversary.

The limited-edition Zero Euro 12–notes commemorative series is being unveiled by UAE-based specialized numismatics company, Numisbing, with just 5000 notes of each design.

The first two notes of the series are launching now and the rest sequentially until Oct 2, 2019, according to a press statement issued in Mumbai. The notes are designed by Dubai-based Indian artist, Akbar Saheb. The designs are based on important events from Gandhi’s personal and political life, paying rich tribute to the legendary figure, who remains a beacon of peace for many people across the globe.

Explaining the background of the initiative, Ramkumar, the founder of Numisbing said “Besides the fact that these commemorative notes have a huge shelf value, the bigger reason for the initiative was to bring Mahatma Gandhi back to life using incidents that are more than just history lessons.”
