| Obverse lettering | BANK OF MONTREAL PAID UP CAPITAL $6,000,000 ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS 100 COUNTERSIGNED PRESIDENT British American BANK NOTE C° Montreal & Ottawa |
| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a single colour as a back-print impression of the obverse design elements, showing the two portrait vignettes, the central allegorical figure, and the repeated ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS legend in mirror image, consistent with the wet-transfer printing technique employed by the British American Bank Note Company for this series. The overall impression is faint and uncoloured, serving primarily as a counterfeit deterrent through the complexity of the transferred intaglio imagery. |
