The Hyderabad Mint’s limited-quantity set pairs two ₹50 Project Tiger commemorative coins with a pen in a diary-style package.

The new Project Tiger diary set brings together two ₹50 commemorative coins issued in 2023, a pen and a presentation format that echoes another recent Mint product. Listed by the India Government Mint, Hyderabad, the set is priced at ₹23,380, with bookings beginning on October 13, 2026. The Mint describes availability as limited, making the set’s packaging and price central parts of its appeal to collectors.
The coins mark 50 Years of Project Tiger. This set presents them together in a diary-style format, with an interior design resembling the recently issued Printed Artwork Background Frame. That similarity gives collectors a useful point of comparison: the Mint is drawing on a presentation approach seen in another recent product, while packaging the coins with a pen as part of a different set.
What the set contains
The stated contents are two ₹50 commemorative coins and one pen. The ₹50 denomination applies to each coin; the listed price of ₹23,380 is for the complete set. The source does not give individual coin specifications, such as metal composition, weight, diameter, edge details, or mintages, so collectors comparing this set with other Project Tiger issues will need those details from a separate description if they matter to their collecting focus.
Nor does the listing provide a quantity figure for the limited offering. “Limited quantities” signals that availability is constrained, but it does not establish how many sets have been made or how long bookings will remain open. Those distinctions matter when recording a release or comparing later listings: a limited offering is not itself a published mintage, and a booking start date does not indicate when stock will run out.
Price and presentation
At ₹23,380, this is a packaged collectible whose price includes more than the two coins: the diary-style presentation and pen are part of the offer. The source attributes the premium charged for Mint sets largely to differences in packaging. That makes it useful for buyers to assess the set as a complete presentation, rather than treating the coin denomination as a guide to the price of the package.
Collectors who focus on the coins themselves may want to compare the set’s contents with the 2023 commemorative issues and consider whether the presentation adds something they want to keep or display. Collectors who enjoy Mint packaging may give greater weight to the diary format and its resemblance to the Printed Artwork Background Frame. Either way, the listing supports a clear distinction between the coins and the package around them; it does not provide a separate price for any component.
The Mint continues to offer collectible sets with varied packaging, and the source notes that some buyers will purchase them at the listed price. It also questions whether demand at this level can last over time. That remains an assessment, rather than a reported sale result: the listing gives no auction outcome, resale price, or evidence of how many sets have been booked. A sellout, if one occurs, would show that the available quantity was taken up; on its own, it would not establish ongoing demand or a later market price.
Booking details to check
The stated booking start date is October 13, 2026, and the set is currently listed through the Mint’s website. The supplied details do not specify a closing date, shipping schedule, purchase limit, or whether the listed price includes delivery. Collectors following the release should check the product listing for those practical details and confirm that the contents and price match the set they intend to order.
For collection records, the most useful confirmed details are the Project Tiger anniversary theme, the two ₹50 coins issued in 2023, the diary-style set with a pen, the ₹23,380 price, and the October 13, 2026 booking start. The listing offers a distinctive package around a pair of commemorative coins; its longer-term appeal will depend on what collectors value in the presentation and on how the limited offering is documented.
