| Reverse description | The reverse bears a finely detailed iconic representation of the Virgin Mary Hodegetria (Wayshower), depicted in the traditional Byzantine style as a half-length figure facing forward, holding the Christ Child on her left arm. The Christ Child is shown with a nimbus and rendered in a formal, hieratic pose. The Cyrillic inscription 'СВ. БОГОРОДИЦА ПЪТЕВОДИТЕЛКА' (Saint Virgin Mary Wayshower) is divided across the left and right fields of the coin, flanking the central devotional image. |
