Bulgaria 10 leva Phenomenons Chudnite Mostove Bridge PR68 PCGS silver coin 2012

The 2012 Bulgaria 10 Leva “Chudnite Mostove – Natural Phenomenon” silver coin celebrates one of the most impressive natural arches in the Rhodope Mountains. The reverse depicts the monumental limestone bridge with its characteristic curved span, sculpted by centuries of erosion. The coin shows the large central opening, a smaller oval cavity on the left, and a stony riverbed flowing beneath the arch, with scattered rounded stones adding texture. A dense forest of tall fir trees appears both atop the formation and through the opening, creating a sense of depth and emphasizing the scale of the landscape. The inscription “ПРИРОДЕН ФЕНОМЕН ЧУДНИТЕ МОСТОВЕ” elegantly encircles the scene.

The obverse displays the official coat of arms of the Bulgarian National Bank, featuring two heraldic lions supporting a shield and a banner inscribed 1879. The field is framed by the inscriptions “БЪЛГАРСКА НАРОДНА БАНКА,” the year 2012, and the value 10 ЛЕВА, all set against deep proof fields that enhance the frosted relief.

Graded PCGS PR68DCAM, the coin exhibits strong cameo contrast, crisp detailing of the rock textures, and beautifully polished surfaces. A must-have piece for collectors focused on natural wonders, Bulgarian geography, and high-grade modern commemorative issues.
