The revised graphic design of the Bulgarian national side of the euro coins has been approved by the Governing Council of the Bulgarian National Bank.

The one-euro coin will feature the heavenly patron of Bulgaria, St. Ivan of Rilski. The 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent coins will feature the Madara Horseman.
