Bulgaria 1882 30 Stotinki Coat of Arms, Imperforate Pair
Bulgaria · 1882 · 30 Stotinki
This stamp features the Bulgarian coat of arms, a crowned lion rampant, within an ornate frame. The denomination '30' is shown in numerals at the top corners, with 'СТОТИНКИ' (Stotinki) inscribed below the central design. This particular example is a rare imperforate horizontal pair, a significant printing variety.
Issued as part of the second definitive series of the Principality of Bulgaria, these stamps replaced the earlier 'Large Lion' design and were in use during a period of national consolidation after the Russo-Turkish War.
