King Ferdinand I, Unissued

Bulgaria · 1918 · 10 stotinki

This stamp features a portrait of Tsar Ferdinand I of Bulgaria, facing left, within an ornate oval frame. The denomination '10' is shown in the lower corners, with 'СТОТИНКИ' (Stotinki) printed below the portrait. This issue was prepared but never officially released for postal use.

Prepared in 1918 near the end of World War I, this series was never issued due to Bulgaria's defeat and the subsequent abdication of Tsar Ferdinand I in October of that year.
