Bulgaria 50 stotinki 1981 coin - no that year of production

Hi,

Mentioned coin, Bulgaria 50 stotinki 1981 coin, belongs to this coin, by color

N#4029

but there is no that year, 1981, of production

Here are photos of that coin :

This is not   50 Stotinki 2nd Coat of Arms; Bulgaria Anniversary, not that color.

N#12338.

What is true ?

Yours is N#12338 the example pictures are just very bad (out of focus and taken under bad lighting). Please take pictures of your coin under natural light (the ones in this thread could be used but I am sure you can get them a little bit better) and replace the ones we currently have with yours.

Hello.All Bulgarian circulation coins dated 1981, in denominations of

1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 stotinki, as well as 1 lev, were issued in honor of the anniversary

“1300 Years of Bulgaria”. Accordingly, the obverse of these coins bears the commemorative legend „Хиляда и триста години България“ instead of the standard inscription «Народна република България».

This is an official commemorative issue of circulation coins, which were in regular monetary use. The color, alloy, and design fully correspond to the officially approved minting program of 1981.

Officially declared mint errors:

- 1 stotinka with the standard obverse “Народна република България” — 137 pieces;                      - - 2 stotinki with the standard obverse “Народна република България” — 20 pieces.

All other 1981-dated coins bearing the inscription

„Хиляда и триста години България“

are normal, standard commemorative circulation coins of Bulgaria.
