| Obverse description | The central vignette presents a detailed intaglio rendering of a cod tail rising from a seabed underprint of coral and marine flora, set against a cream and pale ochre guilloche ground. Large intaglio numerals '100' occupy the upper centre, below which the denomination legend 'HUNDRAÐ KRÓNUR' is printed in bold letterpress. Two alphanumeric serial numbers appear at upper left and lower left, with two facsimile signatures and a small circular guilloche rosette to the left margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse carries a panoramic watercolour-style vignette of the harbour town of Klaksvík, rendered in warm brown tones with a distinctive mountain silhouette rising at left above the waterfront and vessels. The issuer name 'FØROYAR' is printed in bold intaglio letterpress across the centre, beneath which two lines of smaller text cite the statutory authority for issue. A guilloche panel in the upper right corner contains the numeral '100', and a repeating decorative guilloche underprint frames the composition at top and bottom. |
