Obverse description Central device consisting of the Chinese character 川 (Szechuan) enclosed within a stylized quatrefoil or floral medallion, itself set within a circular frame. The surrounding field bears Chinese legends arranged around the periphery, reading from upper right to left and continuing along the lower arc. A toothed or beaded border encircles the entire design. The legends denote the issuing province, the Republican era date, and the denomination.

Reverse description Central numeral '100' in bold relief, positioned at the center of a four-pointed diamond or lozenge formed by the convergence of four foliate sprays. Each spray consists of leafy branches bearing buds or berries, arranged symmetrically to fill the four quadrants of the field. A plain inner border and an outer toothed border frame the design. The overall composition is bold and symmetrical, reflecting the standard decorative style of provincial Chinese copper coinage of the Republican period.
