| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The central bold-relief silver intaglio vignette presents two full-rigged sailing vessels — the Royal Rover and the King James — under sail off a rocky coastline, referencing the exploits of pirate captain Howell Davis, set against a 23K gold foil ground. Ornate floral and foliate borders frame both lateral margins, with denomination numeral "100" in shield cartouches at each corner. The issuer legend arcs across a banner at the top, with "ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS" inscribed along the lower panel. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The central bold-relief vignette, rendered in 23K gold foil, presents a dramatic seascape of turbulent ocean waves against a rugged coastal landscape, without contrasting silver elements. Circular medallions at the left and lower-left bear the national arms and a portrait bust respectively, with a corresponding medallion at right carrying a second portrait; denomination numeral "100" appears in scalloped cartouches at each corner. The issuer legend and independence commemoration text are inscribed at the top, with "MINISTRY OF FINANCE" and "ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS" along the lower border. |

Antigua and Barbuda gained full independence on 1 November 1981, and this note was issued in direct commemoration of that event — which is why the piece exists at all. It is a numismatic souvenir item, not a circulating banknote, produced as a collectible from the moment of issue.
The bimetallic construction — .999 fine silver substrate against 23-karat gold foil — is the central technical point of interest here. Alan D'Estrehan handled the design, though documentation on the specific printer or fabricator for this unusual format remains thin in the standard references.
