European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde has welcomed the design of Bulgaria’s €1 coin in a Facebook post, the state news agency BTA reported.
“Exciting news for Bulgaria and the euro area! Take a first look at the design of Bulgaria’s €1 coin,” she wrote, adding that the design maintains continuity with Bulgaria’s current coins and features symbols deeply rooted in the country’s heritage.
The national side of the coin depicts St Ivan of Rila (c. 876–946), a hermit monk, miracle worker, patron saint of the Bulgarian people and founder of the Rila Monastery, alongside the Cyrillic inscription “БЪЛГАРИЯ” (“Bulgaria”). The word 'ЕВРО' ('Euro') in Cyrillic and the year of minting will appear on the left.
