| Obverse description | Central vignette of a bust portrait of Henri IV set within an ornate guilloche cartouche, printed in dark intaglio-style ink against a salmon-pink ground. Two blank rectangular panels flank the portrait at left and right, intended as serial number windows for motion picture use. The lower half carries a vivid orange-red underprint of Parisian architectural facades. The denomination numeral "100" appears at upper right, with the written value "CENT FRANCS" at lower left. The printer's signature "Earl & Hays" is inscribed in script at the right margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse closely mirrors the obverse layout, with a central portrait vignette of Henri IV enclosed in a guilloche cartouche, flanked by two blank rectangular panels. An orange-red underprint of Parisian building facades occupies the lower portion of the note. The "FOR MOTION PICTURE USE ONLY" overprint appears prominently in a boxed legend at the bottom centre, reinforcing the prop nature of this piece. |
