Bulgaria 10 leva Singer Nikolai Gyaurov Music PR69 PCGS gilded silver coin 2008

The 2008 Bulgaria 10 Leva “Nikolay Gyaurov” coin is a striking tribute to one of the greatest opera basses of the 20th century. Part of the “Famous Bulgarian Voices” series, it honors Gyaurov’s powerful artistry and global legacy. The obverse impresses with a finely gilded portrait of the singer, capturing his expressive gaze and stage presence, surrounded by the inscription „ИМЕНТИТЕ БЪЛГАРСКИ ГЛАСОВЕ – НИКОЛАЙ ГЯУРОВ“. The detailed engravings of his ceremonial costume, folds of fabric, and decorative medallions enrich the design with authenticity.

The reverse features the emblem of the Bulgarian National Bank: a heraldic shield supported by two lions, the year “1879,” the denomination “10 ЛЕВА,” and the date 2008. Deep-mirror fields contrast beautifully with the frosted devices, enhancing the Prooflike appearance. Nikolay Gyaurov, celebrated for roles in Don Giovanni, Faust and Boris Godunov, remains an icon of world opera, admired for his exceptional timbre and dramatic mastery.
