| Obverse description | Intaglio portrait of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in three-quarter view occupies the right half of the note against a fine guilloche underprint in pale blue and teal, with a large star-and-crescent motif as a latent-image underprint at centre. The denomination '100 / YÜZ / TÜRK LİRASI' is printed in deep carmine intaglio at centre-left, flanked by a large numeral '100' at lower left and an optically variable security patch at the right margin. Two manuscript signatures of the Başkan and Başkan Yardımcısı appear at bottom centre above the printer's imprint. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a vignette of Buhurizade Mustafa Itri Efendi, the celebrated 17th-century Ottoman composer, rendered in intaglio at the right, set against an intricate guilloche background in deep blue and teal tones. Musical notation, stylised staff lines, and traditional Ottoman musical instruments are interwoven across the composition, while a whirling Mevlevi dervish figure appears at left as a unifying cultural motif. The denomination and bank title are repeated in the upper register. |
