Comment

The "M" mint mark is normally only for proof coins, but this is an exception where both diamond and "M" mintmark coins were released for circulation.

Interesting fact

The Madan Mohan Malaviya 5 Rupees coin from India, issued in 2011, features an image of Mahatma Gandhi on the obverse side, which is a departure from the standard design of Indian rupee coins that feature the national emblem. This is because Madan Mohan Malaviya was a close associate of Gandhi and played a significant role in the Indian independence movement.
