Comment

KM mentions a non-magnetic 2000 issue that couldn't be verified to exist.

Interesting fact

The 2 Stotinki coin from Bulgaria, made of Aluminium bronze and weighing 2.5 grams, was part of a series of coins introduced in 1999 to replace the previous series that had been in circulation since 1952. This series featured a new design and was minted with a non-magnetic material to prevent confusion with the magnetic coins that were also in circulation at the time.
