BNB completes the approval process for the design of Bulgaria's future euro coins

The Bulgarian National Bank completed the process of coordinating and approving the design of the Bulgarian euro coins.

This is another important step that Bulgaria’s central bank has taken in preparation for the country's full membership in the euro zone.

The design reproduces the current symbols minted on Bulgarian exchange coins (the Madara Horseman on 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 euro cent coins; St John of Rila on the 1 euro coin; and Paisiy Hilendarski on the 2 euro coin).

Upcoming steps include:

1. Production of euro coins with Bulgarian national side in quantity of up to 1 million pieces for each denomination to test the quality of the produced coins and certification of the Bulgarian "Mint" EAD.

2. Regular production of the necessary quantities of euro coins with Bulgarian national side after Council of the EU decides to approve the adoption of the euro by Bulgaria.

3. Issuing the euro coins with the Bulgarian symbols as of the date of the adoption of the euro as legal tender in Bulgaria.
