Obverse description Central vignette in bold intaglio relief renders Anne Bonny boarding John Halman's sloop, with smaller sailing vessels in the middle distance across open seas. Floral pilaster borders frame either side of the composition, with denomination numerals '100' in shield cartouches at each corner; the legend 'GOVERNMENT OF ANTIGUA & BARBUDA' runs along the top banner and 'ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS' along the lower border. A caption to the left of the central vignette reads 'Anne Bonny boarding John Halman's Sloop', with the 23K gold foil fineness mark to the right.

Reverse description The central vignette, executed in bold relief on 23K gold foil, presents a panoramic coastal or seascape scene with rolling waves and a rocky shoreline. To the lower left, the national coat of arms appears within an oval medallion, while a portrait medallion of a female figure — likely representing Anne Bonny — is set within a circular cartouche at the lower right. Corner numerals '100' in ornate frames repeat the denomination, with the independence commemorative inscription set beneath the upper border legend.
