| Reverse description | The central vignette reproduces an intaglio engraving after Yaroslav Veshin's painting 'Ploughman', showing a Bulgarian peasant standing beside a pair of oxen in a field with a second figure crouching to the right, all set within an ornate cartouche frame. Bold green numerals 250 with the legend Лева appear in panels to the left and right of the central scene, supported by dense guilloche lacework borders. The bank title in French, BANQUE NATIONALE DE BULGARIE, runs across the top, with the denomination in Cyrillic along the bottom panel and anti-counterfeiting legal text in the upper side panels. |
