Obverse description	At left, an intaglio portrait vignette of General Aung San in three-quarter profile, wearing traditional Burmese dress and gaung baung headwear, set against an ornate floral guilloche background. A central panel carries the denomination in Burmese script within a fine engine-turned guilloche frame, with the numeral 100 rendered in the upper left corner. The note displays a multicolour underprint in pink and green tones, with the English legend ONE HUNDRED KYATS running along the lower margin.

Reverse description	The central vignette presents a saung gauk (traditional Burmese arched bow harp) rendered in intaglio, its curved neck, resonating body and tasselled strings depicted with fine detail against a multicolour wave-pattern guilloche underprint in green, pink and blue tones. To the left, a large circular rosette guilloche medallion provides a decorative counterpoint, while to the right a second ornate circular medallion frames the numeral 100. The issuer's name and denomination appear in the upper border, with ONE HUNDRED KYATS in letterpress along the lower margin.
