Obverse description Blue intaglio print over green underprint, with black serial numbers. A vignette of a zebu (Bos taurus indicus) head facing right occupies the left portion, while an elaborate guilloche panel at lower right carries the denomination numeral. A red overprint reading 'BURUNDI' distinguishes this issue from the parallel Rwanda emission.
Obverse lettering BANQUE D`EMISSION DU RWANDA ET DU BURUNDI CENT FRANCS PAYABLES A VUE UN ADMINISTRATEUR LE PRESIDENT 31.07.62 LE CONTREFACTEUR EST PUNIT DE SERVITUDE PENALE BURUNDI 100
(Translation: Issuing Bank of Rwanda and Burundi. One hundred francs payable at sight. Administrator, president. The counterfeiter is punished with penal servitude.)
Reverse description Printed entirely in blue, the reverse is dominated by an intricate all-over guilloche composition comprising three large rosette medallions of varying form — a scalloped central medallion flanked by an oval and a circular rosette — interspersed with starburst and lathe-work fillers. The denomination '100' appears in bold numerals at upper left and lower right within the guilloche field, and the bank title is inscribed in a horizontal panel along the lower border.
