Obverse description A front-facing intaglio portrait of a young Ghanaian woman in a white headscarf occupies the left-centre of the note, set against a multicolour guilloche underprint in blue, purple, and orange. At upper centre, the national arms appear below the "GET INVOLVED" motto within a star vignette, accompanied by the Adinkra symbol inscription "GYE NYAME". Denomination numerals "100" appear at lower left and upper right, flanked by decorative kente-pattern panels and traditional Ghanaian symbolic motifs.

Reverse description The central vignette presents a detailed intaglio scene of workers engaged in the loading and carrying of heavy sacks and crates of agricultural produce, framed by cocoa leaf branches on either side. The composition, rendered in deep purple and blue tones over a pale green guilloche underprint, evokes Ghana's agricultural economy and the national "Get Involved" self-reliance ethos. The Bank of Ghana arms appear at left, with denomination numerals "100" at lower left and lower right flanking the main vignette.
