| Obverse description | The central field displays the shield-shaped arms of the Saarland, featuring a quartered coat of arms with a crenellated tower at chief, set at the intersection of a bold cross whose four arms extend to the rim. An interlaced circular chain device surrounds the central shield, its links connecting the four arms of the cross in a decorative roundel. The legend SAARLAND is arranged radially around the periphery, with each letter positioned between the cross arms, reading clockwise from the upper left, all contained within a raised rim. |

| Reverse description | The large numeral '100' dominates the central field in bold relief, with the word ESSAI inscribed in smaller capitals directly above it. The circular legend EINHUNDERT FRANKEN arcs across the upper periphery, while the date 1955, flanked by small decorative mint marks, is positioned along the lower rim. The design is bold and typographic in character, with all elements rendered in clean, modern lettering against a smooth, brushed field, enclosed by a raised border and reeded edge. |
