| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief depiction of a Carib hummingbird (Orthorhyncus cristatus) in dynamic flight, its wings fully extended, as it approaches a cluster of tubular tropical flowers on a branching stem occupying the upper and right portions of the field. Additional floral sprigs and a leafy branch are rendered in the lower field, lending a naturalistic botanical setting to the composition. The denomination legend 'ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS' curves along the upper left periphery in bold serif lettering. The polished proof fields provide strong contrast to the finely frosted relief of the bird and flora, enhancing the overall visual depth of the design. |
