| Obverse description | The second coat of arms of the People's Republic of Bulgaria is depicted centrally within a raised inner circle, featuring a rampant lion on a shield, flanked by two wheat ears tied with a ribbon, and surmounted by a five-pointed star. A circular Cyrillic commemorative legend surrounds the central device in the outer ring, separated by a beaded border, marking the 1300th anniversary of the Bulgarian state. The dates 681 and 1944, denoting the founding of the Bulgarian state and the socialist era respectively, accompany the inscription. The overall design is rendered in a flat, socialist-realist engraving style typical of Bulgarian coinage of the period. |
