正面描述 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.

备注

Antigua and Barbuda had been independent for less than a year when this note was issued — the nation achieved sovereignty from Britain in November 1981. This piece was never intended for circulation; it belongs to a short-lived genre of legal-tender collector issues produced by several newly independent Caribbean states in the early 1980s, partly as revenue instruments dressed in national symbolism.

The .999 silver substrate bonded to 23-karat gold foil was a deliberate collector pitch, not a monetary one. Alan D'Estrehan's involvement places it within a small circle of designers working the Caribbean commemorative market at the time.
