| 表面の説明 | The central vignette presents a bold-relief intaglio rendering in .999 fine silver of the buccaneer Pierre LeGrand boarding and capturing the Vice-Admiral's ship, a large square-rigged galleon rendered in fine detail amid open seas. Floral and foliate columns frame the left and right borders, with denomination numerals "100" in each corner cartouche. The issuer legend arches across the top within a banner, and the denomination in words runs along the lower border flanked by ornamental scrollwork, all executed against a 23K gold foil ground. |

Antigua and Barbuda gained full independence on 1 November 1981, and this note was issued to mark that event — making it a commemorative from the very first year of the country's existence as a sovereign state. Alan D'Estrehan's involvement places it within the small community of Caribbean artists commissioned for independence-era numismatic issues during this period.
The .999 fine silver composition bonded against 23-karat gold foil is the technically interesting element here. These hybrid metallic notes were produced in limited runs for the collector market and were never intended for circulation — survival rates are high relative to issue quantity, which keeps values modest despite the precious metal content.
