Was ever a fifty paise coin with description of rhinoceros in circulation in India?

I wonder whether Reserve Bank of India has ever brought a fifty paise coin with Picture of Rhinoceros on backside of the coin in India?

1. ............... YES you can still find them ....... I remember it very well ......
2. no it was not 50 paisa it is 25 paise coin
3. No there is no 50 paise coin wth rhinoceros on one side, but it is 25 paise coin. Though there is no value for it now, it is very much in circulation. I have these coins with years 1992 and 2002. I think the coins are minted by Government of India and not RBI-
4. it was a 25 paisa coin or a 4 anna coin
5. It was a 25 paise coin in large circulation, but I vaguely remember that along with 25 paise coins, a limited edition (collectors' edition) was also issued with rhino on 50 paise coins, but they are rare. 25 paise coins are widely available. I am trying to remember, if i get more details will inform you
6. I COLLECT OLD COINS I HAVE 12 DIFFERENT 50 PAISE COINS OF INDIA BUT NEVER HEARD OF THIS ONE
