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.
