The 50 Rupees (Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel) 1996 coin from India is a non-circulating commemorative coin that was issued to honor the 100th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, a prominent Indian leader and freedom fighter. The coin features an image of Sardar Patel on the obverse side and the national emblem of India on the reverse side. It is made of copper-nickel and weighs 30 grams.
