Comments
Oficjalne retusze tego typu były produkowane w bułgarskiej mennicy w Sofii w latach 1967-68 i wypuszczane przed 2002 r. Egzemplarze te można odróżnić po grubszych, szerzej rozstawionych legendach na krawędziach.
Ta moneta używa kalendarza juliańskiego (Bułgaria ogłosiła niepodległość 05 października 1908 r. zgodnie z kalendarzem gregoriańskim i przeszła na kalendarz gregoriański w 1916 r.).
