| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed in dark blue on a tan guilloche underprint, the reverse is dominated by two large circular medallion vignettes — one at centre-left and one at centre-right — each enclosing an intaglio portrait bust of a classical female head in profile, surrounded by lathe-work rings bearing repeated numeral 100. The central panel carries the trilingual denomination CENT FRANCS / HUNDERT FRANKEN / CENTO FRANCHI in bold letterpress within a finely engraved guilloche frame. Corner cartouches at all four positions repeat the numeral 100, and the outer border mirrors the multilingual denomination band found on the obverse. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Banque Commerciale Neuchâteloise was one of several cantonal private note-issuing banks operating under the Swiss federal system before the 1907 establishment of the Schweizerische Nationalbank, which absorbed or terminated most private emission rights. This note falls squarely in that transitional window — the bank would have ceased issuing shortly before or immediately following the SNB's founding, making the later dates in this series particularly short-lived in circulation.
Bradbury Wilkinson's involvement here is worth noting. The London firm held engraving contracts with dozens of smaller European banks precisely because Swiss domestic print capacity for high-security currency was limited. The Neuchâtelois had no particular advantage in producing their own notes locally, so outsourcing to Bradbury Wilkinson was a practical rather than a prestige decision.
