| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark brown on a light ground and framed by a fine guilloche border with the denomination 100 repeated in each corner. The issuer's name ΤΡΑΠΕΖΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ appears in a cartouche at the top, below which the title ΤΑΜΕΙΑΚΟΝ ΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΙΟΝ and the agricultural purpose clause are set in letterpress. The large numeral 100,000 in bold face occupies the centre, flanked on each side by the series designation ΣΕΙΡΑ Γ', with the date EN ΑΘΗΝΑΙΣ ΤΗ 15ῃ ΜΑΪΟΥ 1943 and two manuscript signatures appearing in the lower portion. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in green and relies on geometric guilloche work for its design, with no pictorial vignette. A central panel carries the large numeral 100,000 in white relief within an ornate cartouche, surrounded by an intricate lathe-work underprint of interlocking maze patterns. A continuous repeating text band reading ΤΡΑΠΕΖΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ runs along all four outer borders, with rosette ornaments at the corners. |
