100 Dollars Yellow swallowtail

Obverse description	The central field displays the coat of arms of Belize, featuring two woodcutters as supporters flanking a quartered shield, surmounted by a mahogany tree, with the national motto SUB UMBRA FLOREO on a scroll below. The legend BELIZE arcs along the upper periphery, while ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS curves along the lower periphery, all separated by a continuous beaded border. The fineness inscription 500/1000 FINE GOLD appears in the lower field beneath the shield. The composition and denomination together constitute the principal legend distributed across the pentagonal flan.

Reverse description	A finely detailed, naturalistically rendered Yellow Swallowtail butterfly (Papilio ambiguus, the Black Witch or local swallowtail species depicted on Belize coinage) is portrayed with wings fully spread and occupying the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The date 1981 is inscribed in the lower exergual area beneath the butterfly. The pentagonal border features an elaborate foliate and scrollwork decorative frame in high relief, characteristic of Franklin Mint craftsmanship.
