Opmerkingen

Bulgaria had only regained effective autonomy from Ottoman suzerainty a decade earlier when this note was issued, and the Bulgarian National Bank itself had been founded just six years prior, in 1879. The designation "Zlato" — gold — indicates the note was denominated in gold-backed leva, a deliberate signal of monetary credibility from a government still establishing itself before European financial institutions.

Bradbury Wilkinson engraved and printed the early Bulgarian note series from their New Malden works. The choice was politically logical: a Western European security printer lent legitimacy that no domestic facility could yet provide.
