Denomination numerals "100" appear in ornate cartouches to the left and right of the central portrait, with elaborate lathe-work scrollwork covering the field. |

| 备注 |
British Guiana's wartime currency was issued under emergency authority rather than through the usual colonial banking channel, the British Guiana Bank. The Government of British Guiana stepped in directly — an unusual arrangement driven by the disruptions of the Second World War to normal monetary supply chains across British Caribbean territories.
Waterlow & Sons printed the series in London, but wartime shipping made delivery precarious. At the $100 denomination, circulation would have been extremely limited — a sum exceeding most monthly wages in the colony at the time — so surviving examples were rarely subjected to heavy use.
