| Obverse description | Dark blue and ochre intaglio-printed note with a central guilloche-framed panel bearing the bank title and denomination inscription over an intricate lathe-work underprint. To the left stands a classical female allegorical figure in robes, holding a fasces and resting against a shield, rendered in fine line engraving; to the lower right a seated putto vignette appears within an ornate cartouche. The denomination numeral "100" appears in three oval cartouches — upper centre, lower centre, and lower right — with the date "15 Mai 1898" and three manuscript signature lines for the Caissier, Président, and Directeur printed below the central text block. |

| Reverse description | Printed in dark teal-green on an ochre guilloche underprint, the reverse is dominated by a large central oval medallion flanked by two smaller circular vignettes, each containing a classical female portrait in profile. The central medallion carries the trilingual denomination inscriptions stacked vertically, surrounded by dense lathe-work patterns with repeated numeral "100" micro-printing around the oval borders. Four corner cartouches each display the numeral "100", and a continuous multilingual legend runs along the upper and lower margins. |
