| Obverse description | Central vignette in bold relief silver intaglio presents Captain William Taylor's sailing vessel Victory under full sail on open seas, rendered in fine detail against a 23K gold foil field. Ornate floral and scroll border columns flank the central image on both sides, with denomination numerals "100" at each corner within raised cartouches. The issuer's legend runs along the upper border tablet and the value inscription "ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS" appears in raised lettering along the lower margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is executed entirely in 23K gold foil relief, with a central vignette of a rugged coastal or island landscape rendered in bold raised relief. To the lower left, the national coat of arms appears within a raised oval cartouche, while a portrait medallion of a female figure — likely Queen Elizabeth II — occupies a corresponding cartouche at the lower right. Denomination numerals "100" are repeated at each corner, and the commemorative independence inscription is positioned below the upper border tablet. |
