| Obverse description | The state coat of arms of the People's Republic of Bulgaria occupies the central field, depicting a rampant lion on a shield surmounted by a five-pointed star and flanked by wheat sheaves tied with a ribbon bearing the dates 681 and 1944. The denomination numeral '5' is prominently rendered in large relief below the arms, with the currency inscription 'ЛЕВА' to the right and the issue year '1976' to the left. The circular legend 'НАРОДНА РЕПУБЛИКА' arcs across the upper periphery and 'БЪЛГАРИЯ' along the lower periphery, both separated by five-pointed stars at the sides. |

| Reverse description | A full-length figure of a female freedom fighter stands facing, dressed in traditional Bulgarian attire, holding a rifle in her left hand and grasping a large unfurled banner in her right. Behind her, a series of concentric arcs radiate outward, evoking a sunburst or rays of light. The date '1876' is inscribed to the left within the inner field, commemorating the year of the April Uprising. The curved legend 'АПРИЛСКО ВЪСТАНИЕ' arcs across the upper border and 'СТО ГОДИНИ' (One Hundred Years) is inscribed along the lower border, both separated by ornamental dots. |
