A limited edition Sachin Tendulkar gold coins, with the senior cricketer's face and signature embossed on them, were launched on Monday on the auspicious day of 'Akshaya Tritiya'. Valuemart Gold and Jewels launched one lakh Sachin Tendulkar gold coins, each weighing 10 grams, in the senior cricketer's presence in Mumbai.
The 24 karat gold coin is priced at Rs 34,000 and will be available on valuemartgold.com and leading jewellery stores across the country.
The company had signed up Tendulkar as its brand ambassador for a three-year period in February this year. "I have had many golden moments on the field. There are some wonderful memories but this is something really different. Let me first wish everyone happy Akshaya Tritiya because it is an important day in Hindu calendar," said Tendulkar at the launch.
