Obverse description	The Hungarian coat of arms is centrally placed within an elaborate ornamental frame, flanked by the numeral '100' in a separate decorative cartouche. The face value inscription is rendered in four languages around the central vignette, set within a guilloche-patterned border typical of mid-19th century letterpress printing. Dated 'September 1-én, 1848' and signed by Lajos Kossuth as Minister of Finance, the note carries the full legal tender text affirming redemption at 100 silver forint.
