The heraldic device is centrally positioned and dominates the design. Below the shield, the legend ČESKOSLOVENSKÁ SOCIALISTICKÁ REPUBLIKA is inscribed in three lines across the middle field. The denomination 100 appears in large numerals at the base of the coin, with the engraver's initials visible in the lower exergue. |

| Reverse description | A bold right-facing portrait bust of the Czech painter Josef Mánes fills the central field, rendered in a sculptural, expressive style with finely detailed flowing hair and a loosely draped collar. The effigy is presented in high relief, conveying a strong artistic character befitting the commemorated subject. The legend JOSEF and the date 1871 appear to the lower left of the portrait, while MÁNES and the commemorative date 1971 are inscribed to the lower right, flanking the bust symmetrically. The engraver's initial F is visible at the bottom of the field below the truncation. |
