| Reverse description | Printed entirely in blue, the reverse is dominated by a large central lozenge-shaped (four-pointed) star with a rosette guilloche at its centre, surrounded by dense lathe-work and floral ornaments filling the field. To the left, an elaborate monogram panel bearing the numeral 100 in white-relief intaglio; to the right, an oval text panel containing the legal tender legend, all framed within an ornate guilloche border with star cornerpieces. |
