Bulgaria 2 stotinki Ferdinand I Coinage Coat of Arms MS63 PCGS bronze coin 1912

The Bulgaria 2 Stotinki 1912 bronze coin is a classic circulation issue from the reign of Tsar Ferdinand I, reflecting the sovereignty and national symbolism of the Kingdom of Bulgaria in the early 20th century. Denominated at 2 stotinki and struck in 1912, this coin belongs to a historically significant period marked by state consolidation and the Balkan Wars.

The obverse displays the crowned Bulgarian coat of arms, featuring a heraldic lion standing upright within a shield. Above the shield rises a royal crown, symbolizing monarchy and state authority. The emblem is surrounded by a circular legend in Cyrillic identifying the issuing state, while the finely detailed border frames the design with restrained elegance. The relief shows careful engraving in the lion’s mane, shield contours, and crown ornaments.

The reverse presents the large numeral “2” at the center, indicating the denomination. Below it appears the word “СТОТИНКИ,” with the date “1912” placed beneath. A symmetrical wreath composed of laurel and oak branches encircles the central inscription, tied at the bottom with a ribbon. The wreath symbolizes strength, victory, and civic stability, while the balanced layout gives the coin a dignified and official appearance.

Struck in bronze and certified by PCGS as MS63 BN, this coin retains attractive original surfaces and even brown toning. As an authenticated example from the Ferdinand I coinage, it represents an essential piece of Bulgarian royal-era numismatics and a compelling addition to any historical collection.
