The question is about:

N#2376
and
N#2377


in the above cases varieties are described:
(…) angular/square shoulder
(…) rounded shoulder

Are they really any differences in the shape of (riders' or hores')  shoulders?
or in fact the difference is rather:

Rectangular rim
Rounded rim
(as per 10 stotinki N#2375

It describes the rim. This is the picture on 50 Stotinki - Bulgaria – Numista

 

Let's wait for more confirmation and than I'll ask for change.

 

The other question is.

Has anyone more 10,20,50 stotinki?

I have only a few of each. Definetly my oldest are firts variety, my newest are second variety. 

However… I have some coins in between…

50s that has letter between thick and thin version, 20s with varius rounded rims.

The newest 10s and 20s I would describe as deep strike. The 50s I have has thick letters but is not “deep strike”….

I did not know those variants, they must have been added since I got my coins, I also have some doubles, I'll have to check later.

Above there are pictures of my stotinki. However I belive we still need help from Bulgaria. 

Some pictures of  50s?

Opinions: 

- if thickness of letters determins ege type?

- if there are bold, thin and medium letters?

Conclusions?

Conclusion is that I need more coins :-).

But seriously: “not enough data”.

Two  described variants exist and I believe your 10b might belong to the rounded edge, thick (and maybe in fact medium) letters.
How many more variants (if any more) are there  I do not know.

Do you also see three  (thin, medium and thick) letter types  on my 50stotinki? (they are low grade)
Are my high grade coins 10s, 20s - just deep strike examples of thick letter round edge variant? 
Or:
Are they another variant?

Can thin letter version have round edge (or it's just something that I would like to see).

So I believe we need someone how has o lot of theses stotinki coins  to help us :-)
 

@Qnko @coinmaniacbg @packer @ivan.garbev @strashimir , maybe you can help us?
