Bulgarian Coin
What does this Bulgarian coin say?
I found this coin while I was going through change. I did some research and found out that it is Bulgarian. I also found a picture, but I have no idea what it says. I’m pretty sure the back side with the guy on the horse says “Bulgaria” in Bulgarian. Any idea what the front says?? (Mine has a 5 on it.) Thanks for any help.

The Bulgarian currency is the lev and the cents are called “stotinki” (plural and stotinka singular).
The yellow and silver coins are 1-50 stotinki. Front says “stotinka” for the 1 cent coin and “stotinki” for the others.
Back says Bulgaria in Bulgarian. The horse man is the Madara rider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madara_Rider
The big one is 1 lev. Front says “1 lev” (lev in Bulgarian). Down on the back it says Bulgaria. And up on the back it says “Св. Иван Рилски” that is Sveti Ivan Rilski meaning St. John of Rila. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_of_Rila
The image is his.
