| Obverse description | The obverse features the official coat of arms of the Bulgarian National Bank at center, depicting a crowned lion passant rampant within a shield supported by two rampant lions, with a ribbon scroll below bearing the founding year '1879'. The circular Cyrillic legend 'БЪЛГАРСКА НАРОДНА БАНКА' arcs around the upper field, while the denomination '10 ЛЕВА' and the issue year '2000' are positioned in the lower field flanking the arms. The design is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field, with the inscriptions separated by ornamental dots. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a circular cameo relief reproducing a medieval Bulgarian coin, depicting a standing crowned figure in imperial robes with surrounding archaic inscriptions, presented in a frosted finish against a polished inner field. This central medallion is framed by a broad matte-finished annular border decorated with twelve raised five-pointed stars, evoking the flag of the European Union. The word 'EURO' is inscribed in bold Latin letters along the lower rim of the border, referencing Bulgaria's aspirations toward European integration. The contrast between the frosted relief and the mirror field gives the reverse a strong cameo proof appearance. |
