| Obverse description | The obverse bears the second socialist-era coat of arms of the People's Republic of Bulgaria centrally positioned in the field, depicting a rampant lion on a shield, flanked by wheat sheaves tied with a ribbon in the national colours, surmounted by a five-pointed star. The design is framed by a raised beaded border. The commemorative legend arcs around the periphery in Cyrillic characters, reading 'ХИЛЯДА И ТРИСТА ГОДИНИ' (One Thousand and Three Hundred Years) at the top and 'БЪЛГАРИЯ' (Bulgaria) at the bottom, with the founding date '681' and the socialist revolution date '1944' incorporated into the inscription, marking the 1300th anniversary of the Bulgarian state. |
