The government is going to issue 1000-rupee coin commemorating Sri Brihadeeswara Temple, Thanjavur, made of silver with copper mix. This is the first time they are going to mint 1000-rupee coin. Many of us know the same temple appeared in high currency notes previously before 'gandhiji' took over. Well what is the idea behind though it is welcome. People like Shri Prasadji1 will be able to throw some light on how the 'temple' happen to appear on our previous currencies.
