| Obverse description | A close-up frontal portrait of the head and upper torso of the Statue of Liberty dominates the field, her radiate crown with seven rays prominently displayed, her raised torch-bearing arm visible at the left. The dark mirror field is populated with stylized birds or aircraft in flight radiating outward from the crown. To the right, the commemorative dates 1886 and 1986 are inscribed in two lines, separated by a horizontal rule. Along the lower portion of the field, the legend REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE appears in two lines within a recessed panel. |

| Reverse description | The field features the bold, stylized inscription LIBERTE / EGALITE / FRATERNITE arranged in three lines in an Art Deco-influenced typeface, filling the upper portion of the design. A Phrygian cap rendered in relief appears at the top of the field above the lettering, serving as the emblematic symbol of the French Republic. Below the motto, a decorative columnar or torch-like device links the legend to the lower panel, which bears the denomination 100 F in large numerals. The date 1986 is inscribed along the lower edge of the field, flanked by mint marks, with the engraver's signature DURAND-MEGRET appearing vertically in the right field. |
