srilankan coin set

This 10 coin set from Sri Lanka includes a number of recent issues and interesting coins. The 1998 bi-metallic 10 Rupee commemorates the 50th anniversary of Sri Lanka's independence from Great Britain. The thick 2004 5 Rupee has edge lettering. The 2004 2 Rupees is a large coin. The new, smaller, recently introduced 1 Rupee, 50 cents and 25 cents are dated 2005. The 5 cents is square, the 2 and 10 cents have scalloped edges and the tiny 1 cent is round. All but the 10 Rupee has the Sri Lanka arms on the reverse.
