1999 - Tercentenary of Khalsa | Unreleased Commemorative Coin

There was an intent by the Punjab government to issue commemorative coin and postal stamps to celebrate 300th Anniversary of Khalsa Panth. There was a PIB notification dated  September 30, 1998. However, it appears that commemorative coin didn't receive the final approval for the release. Only the commemorative postage stamps were issued to mark the occasion.

The President of India, Shri K R Narayanan released the commemorative Postage Stamp on the Tercentenary of the Founding of the Khalsa at the Ashok Hall of Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi on April 09, 1999.
