RenaL Pillar Of The Community Turkey 1205 Posts	Posted 01/27/2006 8:02 pm These coins are "Greyside" for me:) And I want to remind you all darksiders that Bulgaria will join the European Community in 2007 or 2008, so their coinage will be renewed. Current coins and banknotes may just rise considerably in a few years. Report this Post to the Staff
crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 01/27/2006 9:27 pm I really like the "European Union" (first coin) at the top of your post. Many countries do "Europa" or something similar and they are very attractive. You will have to let us know what the Bulgarian mint charges for their new releases as I have found that prices vary greatly from country to country in Europe. Thanks for posting the photos. Great to see the beauty and art from other nations. Report this Post to the Staff
RenaL Pillar Of The Community Turkey 1205 Posts	Posted 01/28/2006 6:31 pm I loved the second one. If I could manage to get that one it will be my first colorised coin. I actually liked it because of the day it commemorates: Baba Marta Day is the day the Bulgarian celebrate spring's arrival details here I remember we tied those red-white "martenitsa"s to our wrists when little kids (good old days:) Edited by RenaL 01/28/2006 6:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff
willieboyd2 Pillar of the Community United States 524 Posts	Posted 02/09/2006 11:44 am This is my favorite Bulgarian coin. It is not a commemorative but has a nice history. Bulgaria 10 Leva 1930 This Bulgaria 1930 10 Leva coin shows "The Madara Horseman", "Krum" in the Cyrillic alphabet, and the date "814". The "horseman" is a rock relief carved into a vertical cliff face depicting a life-size horseman, a lion, and a dog. It is located in northeast Bulgaria. Before World War 2, the common belief was that the horseman was Khan Krum who ruled Bulgaria from 804 - 815 AD. In fact, a Bulgarian coin was minted in the 1930's with a picture of the relief credited to Khan Krum. Many investigations later, a leading Bulgarian archaeologist, Vesilin Besheliev, determined the age of the relief at 705 AD, almost 100 years before Khan Krum. https://www.brianrxm.com The Mysterious Egyptian Magic Coin Coins in Movies Coins on Television Report this Post to the Staff
