| Obverse description | Light blue guilloche underprint covers the entire face, with the denomination numeral '100' in ornate cartouches at all four corners. Two oval intaglio vignettes flank the central text field: at left, Tell's Chapel on Lake Uri with a sailing vessel on the water; at right, the Rütli meadow with alpine peaks and a farmstead. At the top centre, the Uri cantonal arms — a black bull's head — appear within a decorative trophy. The central legend in letterpress reads 'Die Ersparniss-Cassa des Kantons Uri zahlt dem Ueberbringer HUNDERT FRANKEN', with the issue date 'Altdorf, den 1. März 1878' and three signature lines for the Präsident, Verwalter, and Buchhalter below. The emission designation 'EMISSION LIT. A.' is printed at the bottom centre. |
