Below the arms, the large numeral '1' appears in relief, with the denomination legend 'ЛЕВ' (Lev) inscribed beneath it. The circular legend '1300 ГОДИНИ БЪЛГАРИЯ' (1300 Years of Bulgaria) runs around the periphery, reading from lower left to upper right.

| Reverse description | The reverse features a central design of two clasped hands symbolizing Bulgarian-Soviet friendship, positioned in the lower half of the field. Above the handshake, two unfurled flags are depicted side by side: the left bearing the Bulgarian state coat of arms and the right bearing the Soviet hammer and sickle emblem, each surmounted by a five-pointed star. Flanking the lower composition are sprigs of laurel and olive. The legend 'ДРУЖБА НАВЕКИ' (Friendship Forever) curves along the lower portion of the field, with the date '1981' inscribed at the bottom. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |
