Reverse description The reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche rosette at centre, enclosed within a dense geometric underprint of repeating fine-line patterns in blue. Numeral "100" panels appear at left and right, and the city name "СОФИЯ" (Sofia) is inscribed at top centre, with the date "1887" at the bottom centre. The entire surface is covered with repeated "СТО ЛЕВА" inscriptions within the border framework, and forgery-warning text occupies the four corner panels.
