Bulgaria. Commemorative Medal for the 40th Anniversary of Socialist Bulgaria
The Commemorative Medal for the 40th Anniversary of Socialist Bulgaria (Юбилеен медал „40 години социалистическа България“) was instituted on 27 July 1984 by the People’s Republic of Bulgaria to mark the fortieth anniversary of the events of 9 September 1944, a date associated with the establishment of the socialist regime in the country. It was awarded to Bulgarian and foreign citizens.
The medal was produced by the State Mint in Sofia. The obverse depicts the outline of Bulgaria over a five-pointed star; the reverse bears the inscription „40 ГОДИНИ СОЦИАЛИСТИЧЕСКА БЪЛГАРИЯ“ (“40 Years of Socialist Bulgaria”), accompanied by a laurel wreath.
