25 paise coin fades into history!

I have so many childhood memories around 25 paise coin. My grandfather sent me 25 paise everyday as my pocket money for the day with the man who delivered my lunch to school. And I bought candy with that money. That money was enough to buy me two pieces of candy or a helium balloon. The coin was a link and a reminder to that innocent phase of my life. 25 paise is no longer economically viable, so it is gone, but with it has gone those reminders of a time, when small things made me happy and made my day. Ah, I feel a gaping hole in my heart :(.
