| Obverse description | The obverse presents a portrait vignette of a male figure in an oval frame at the left, set against a floral spray. Two large lathe-work circular counters bearing the numeral '100' flank a central vignette of a classical building within an ornate guilloche border. A bold red letterpress underprint reads 'ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS' across the centre, with the issuer title 'THE STATE OF GEORGIA' in large gothic type below the counters. The vertical right border carries the word 'HUNDRED' in large block letters, and the note bears two manuscript signatures above the imprint 'for Comptr. Genl.' and 'Treasurer', with a 'REGISTERED' oval handstamp and the printer's imprint 'HOWELL, SAVANNAH'. |
