Voucher - 20 Leva State Loan

The 1952 Bulgarian state loan vouchers were instruments of the forced subscription campaigns that followed the Soviet model closely — workers and civil servants were expected to "voluntarily" purchase bonds, with deductions taken directly from wages. The 1952 loan was one of several such drives conducted under the early People's Republic, ostensibly to fund industrial reconstruction but functioning primarily as a mechanism for draining private purchasing power from the economy.

Redemption was repeatedly deferred, and many holders never recovered the face value.
