Bulgaria 10 leva Weightlifting Sydney Olympic Games PF68 NGC silver coin 2000

The 2000 Bulgaria 10 Leva “Sydney Olympic Games – Weightlifting” silver coin honors one of the most iconic sports of the Olympic program. The obverse presents a powerful image of a weightlifter captured at the moment of lifting the barbell overhead. The sculpted muscles, the large round plates of the barbell and the dynamic posture emphasize strength and athletic mastery. Along the lower rim runs the Bulgarian inscription “ХХVII Летни Олимпийски Игри – 2000”, seamlessly integrating with the polished Proof fields.

On the reverse, the coin features the coat of arms of the Bulgarian National Bank, supported by two heraldic lions and the founding date 1879. Surrounding them is the inscription “Българска народна банка”, while the bottom displays 2000 and the denomination 10 ЛЕВА. The composition is clean, symmetrical and deeply struck.

Struck in silver with a brilliant Proof finish and certified NGC PF68 Ultra Cameo, this piece stands out with sharp contrast and exceptional eye appeal. Issued for the Sydney 2000 Olympic commemorative program, it is a perfect addition for collectors of sports-themed coins and high-grade Bulgarian numismatics.
