Obverse description Central vignette depicts a llanero on horseback herding cattle across an open plain, rendered in fine intaglio engraving against a light guilloche underprint in green and blue. The bank title BANCO DE VENEZUELA SOCIEDAD ANONIMA appears in bold letterpress across the upper register, flanked on each side by the numeral 100 in large ornate figures. Serial numbers are printed in red at upper left and upper right, with CARACAS and the denomination legend CIEN BOLÍVARES inscribed in the lower portion above the payability clause and two manuscript signatures.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in dark brown and black, with a central oval vignette of the Venezuelan national coat of arms, flanked symmetrically by two large numeral 100 panels set within intricate guilloche rosette designs. The inscription BANCO DE VENEZUELA arches above the central vignette, while VENEZUELA appears in white lettering on a dark rectangular banner across the lower margin. Corner numerals 100 repeat in each quadrant, and the overall layout is strongly geometric with engine-turned lathe-work borders.
