| Obverse description | Portrait of a Maasai woman in traditional beaded headdress and jewellery occupies the left portion of the note, set against a warm savannah-toned underprint with a group of zebras in the central vignette and acacia trees in the background. A vignette of tropical trumpet flowers (Brugmansia) hangs centrally above the zebra scene. The left margin carries a large guilloche-patterned numeral '100', while a vertical column of repeated denomination numerals runs along the right border against a geometric mosaic underprint in orange and blue. |

There is no central bank or monetary authority called the "Bank of the Equatorial Territories" issuing polymer notes in 2015. No such institution exists within the CFA franc zone or any recognized sovereign currency framework. This appears to be a private fantasy or novelty issue — produced outside any legitimate monetary system, with no legal tender status in any jurisdiction.
Franck Medina is a French graphic designer known for producing elaborate non-circulating fantasy banknote designs. Collector interest in such pieces is driven purely by print quality and design ambition, not monetary history.
