| Obverse description | Printed in green on cream paper, the obverse carries a central text panel reading 'De Javasche Bank / Betaalt — Aan — Toonder / Honderd Gulden' with the date 'Batavia, 31 Juni 1908' below, flanked by elaborate guilloche borders. To the left stands a classical allegorical figure of Mercury with caduceus, rendered as an intaglio vignette atop a decorative pedestal; to the upper right, an oval portrait medallion inscribed 'Jan Pieterszoon Coen' frames a bearded historical figure in period costume. Spaces for 'Secretaris' and 'President' signatures appear at the lower centre, with the numeral '100' repeated in the upper centre and lower right corner panels. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in brown and green on a plain ground, dominated by a large central circular guilloche rosette. Two diamond-shaped panels at upper left and upper right each bear the numeral '100', while two hexagonal blank cartouches flank a central rectangular panel in the middle register, all set against an intricate engine-turned underprint. A further rectangular panel at the base contains the numeral '100', with the entire design framed by an ornamental guilloche border — consistent with a trial or colour-proof impression lacking serial numbers or other completion details. |
