    The Bulgaria 5 Leva commemorative coin issued in 1985 celebrates ninety years of National Organized Tourism, an important cultural milestone in Bulgarian social history. This issue pays tribute to the origins of organized travel and tourism in Bulgaria, closely associated with the writer and public figure Aleko Konstantinov, whose legacy is inseparable from the country’s early tourist movement.

    The obverse features a finely detailed left-facing portrait of Aleko Konstantinov, shown with a full beard and thoughtful expression. Around the rim runs the Bulgarian inscription “90 ГОДИНИ ОРГАНИЗИРАН ТУРИЗЪМ,” while his name “АЛЕКО КОНСТАНТИНОВ” appears below the portrait. The dates “1895–1985” are engraved at the bottom, marking the anniversary, with small decorative rosettes placed symmetrically on both sides.

    The reverse displays the emblem of the People’s Republic of Bulgaria, with a rampant lion set within a wreath of wheat ears and topped by a five-pointed star. The dates “681” and “1944” are incorporated into the emblem. Along the rim is the inscription “НАРОДНА РЕПУБЛИКА БЪЛГАРИЯ,” with the denomination “5 ЛЕВА” placed prominently below and the mint year “1985” to the left.

    Struck in copper-nickel with prooflike deep cameo finish, this coin is certified by PCGS as PR68 DCAM, offering crisp relief and strong visual contrast. An excellent choice for collectors of Bulgarian culture, literature, tourism history, and high-grade certified commemoratives.
