Intricate guilloche work fills the background throughout, with denomination and issuing authority inscriptions arranged in the upper and lower registers. |

The Banque de l'Indo-Chine was established by decree in 1875 with a mandate to issue notes across French Indochina and, initially, the French Indian settlements and Réunion as well. This 100 Francs note was produced by the Banque de France's own printing workshops — an unusual arrangement that gave the colonial issue a technical quality matching metropolitan French paper money of the same period. Bramtot was a Prix de Rome medallist better known for his Salon paintings; his involvement in banknote design was a sideline, but the Banque de France drew on exactly that pool of academic talent.
Wullschleger's engraving is the detail that separates this series from most colonial issues of the decade.
