What BulgarianCoins is
BulgarianCoins is an online catalogue of Bulgarian coins, from the first stotinki of the Principality of Bulgaria in 1881 to the Bulgarian National Bank’s euro commemoratives. The catalogue lists 486 coins. For each one we show the year, face value, metal, weight, diameter, mintage and designers, with photos of both sides where we have them.
Alongside the catalogue there are market prices, news and analysis, a free portfolio for your collection and the Bulgarian Coin Exchange, where collectors sell coins to each other. The site is in Bulgarian, English and German; the Exchange works in Bulgarian.
Sponsor: InvestBulgaria.com
BulgarianCoins.com is fully sponsored by InvestBulgaria.com in an effort to popularise Bulgarian cultural heritage. Coins tell Bulgaria’s story: its rulers, events, people, monuments and nature. The catalogue makes them accessible in Bulgarian, English and German to collectors, students, researchers and visitors to the country.
The sponsorship covers the development, hosting and upkeep of the site, which is why the catalogue, the portfolio and the Exchange are free to use. InvestBulgaria.com is an information portal on business and investment in Bulgaria, with a company directory and guides for investors.
Independence
BulgarianCoins is not associated with the Bulgarian National Bank or the Bulgarian Mint. Coin data are based on official sources such as the BNB’s own publications, and we name the source when it is a different one. The site does not buy, sell or value coins. Deals on the Exchange are between collectors.
