| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed entirely in red, the reverse is dominated by a large central guilloche rosette of intricate lathe-work geometry composed of overlapping circular and floral engine-turned patterns. Two smaller matching rosette medallions, each bearing the numeral 100, are positioned symmetrically to the left and right of the central design. The printer's imprint appears in small text at the base of the central vignette. |

The British Guiana Bank was a short-lived commercial institution, and by 1900 it was already in its final years before being absorbed into the consolidating colonial banking structure of the region. Perkins, Bacon & Co. had long-standing experience producing security documents for British colonial issuers — their intaglio work appears on postage stamps and banknotes across the Empire — but a $100 denomination for a small colonial bank in Georgetown represents a high-value instrument with a very narrow probable circulation.
The perforated cancellation on surviving examples confirms these were formally withdrawn rather than worn out, which is typical of high-denomination colonial notes redeemed but not destroyed outright.
