| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the denomination numeral '2' and the Cyrillic legend ЛЕВА in bold relief at centre, with the date 1925 below, all enclosed within an ornate wreath composed of oak and olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow and adorned with rose blooms and buds. The word ESSAI appears in small Latin capitals at the top of the field above the wreath opening, identifying this as a trial strike. A small lightning-bolt privy mark of the Poissy mint is visible below the date at the base of the field. The design is contained within a beaded rim. |

Essai pieces from Bulgaria's 1925 coinage reform were struck in Paris, where the Monnaie de Paris produced trial pieces across multiple compositions before the final circulating versions were approved. Boris III had consolidated power following the political chaos of 1923 — a coup, an attempted counter-coup, and a cathedral bombing that nearly killed him — and the new coinage was part of a broader effort to stabilize and modernize the Bulgarian state. This copper-nickel trial was not adopted; the circulating 2 Leva ultimately went out in a different alloy.
