| Obverse description | Central field features the Coat of Arms of Jamaica, displaying a quartered shield with five golden pineapples, supported by two indigenous Taino figures standing on either side. A crocodile surmounts the crest above the shield, and a scroll at the base bears the national motto in the exergue. The circular legend around the periphery reads '21ST ANNIVERSARY · JAMAICA · INDEPENDENCE' with the dates '1962' and '1983' flanking the arms vertically, and the denomination '$100' appears below the shield. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts two forward-facing busts of male figures flanking a large bold numeral '21' at center, commemorating the 21st anniversary of Jamaican independence. Above the central device, the word 'JAMAICA' arcs across the upper field, accompanied by a stylized sunburst motif. The dates '1962-1983' appear below the numeral, enclosed within a braided rope border that curves across the lower field and terminates in decorative tassels at the base. The inscriptions 'Onward Together' and 'Land We Love' are arranged in the lower portion of the field, with a fine gold purity notation visible near the rim. |
