The Cyrillic inscription БОГОСЛОВСКИ ФАКУЛТЕТ arcs along the upper border. A decorative ribbon banner in the lower portion of the field bears the inscription 100 ГОДИНИ, while the founding year 1923 appears below the building in the exergue area, commemorating the centenary of the institution. |

| Additional information |
The Faculty of Theology at Sofia University was suppressed under communist rule from 1950 and not restored until 1991, making it one of the longer institutional interruptions of Orthodox theological education in the Balkans during the Soviet period. This coin marks the faculty's formal reestablishment within the university structure — a process that involved considerable political negotiation well after the 1989 transition.
