Obverse description The obverse features a highly decorative field entirely covered by an intricate geometric pattern of interlocking diamonds, squares, and triangular motifs evoking traditional Fijian tapa cloth design, interspersed with four stylised palm frond or leaf devices radiating from the centre. At the centre, a raised circular cartouche bears the country name FIJI above the numeral 100 and the denomination DOLLARS below, all in bold raised lettering. The overall composition reflects a distinctly Pacific artistic aesthetic rendered with fine milled precision.

Reverse description The reverse depicts a tabua — the sacred polished sperm whale tooth of Fijian ceremonial tradition — rendered in high relief at the centre, encircled by braided cords representative of the sennet lashing traditionally used to mount the tabua. Two small hallmark-style stamps appear above the inscription TABUA, which is incused within the inner field. The entire design is enclosed by a beaded border, with a circular peripheral legend reading MINIMUM · 18CT · ONE · OUNCE · NATURAL · FIJIAN · GOLD, punctuated by raised dots between words.
