Obverse description The Dominican coat of arms is depicted at centre within a raised inner circle, flanked by two Sisserou Parrots as supporters perched on branches, with the national motto rendered on a scroll below. A crowned lion with a cross-staff serves as the crest above the quartered shield. The legend DOMINICA arcs prominently along the upper border in large incuse lettering within the milled outer band, while the date 1988 appears in the lower field, also within the border, separated by two raised dots on either side.

Reverse description Two Imperial Parrots (Amazona imperialis), the endangered endemic species of Dominica, are depicted in finely detailed high relief perched upon tree branches amid tropical foliage including palm trees and broad-leafed vegetation. The larger bird occupies the central foreground in three-quarter view, with a second bird visible behind and above on a higher branch. The denomination legend ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS curves along the upper portion of the field, and the deeply mirrored proof fields provide strong contrast against the frosted design elements.
