| Obverse description | Black intaglio print on white paper. The central vignette presents a terrestrial globe flanked by a steam vessel at sea on the left and a locomotive on the right, set against a scenic landscape. Below, two oval vignettes frame the composition: a rearing horse to the left and a standing bull to the right, with the denomination numeral '100' in large guilloche panels at each upper corner and the Hawaiian-language legend 'AKAHI HANERI' running vertically along both side borders. The heading 'REPUBLIC OF HAWAII' arches across the upper portion in bold lettering beneath the title 'SILVER CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT', with the authorization text and 'ISSUE OF 1895 - ACT No. 19' at the foot. |
