| Reverse description | The central vignette reproduces in detailed intaglio engraving a 7th-century stone bas-relief capital from Martvili Church, showing a frontal ecclesiastical figure flanked by two stylised winged creatures resting on lions, with grapevine scroll decoration above. A fine guilloche underprint in pale blue and ochre tones fills the background. The denomination numeral 100 appears at lower right alongside the Georgian script value, with the English inscription and year 1999 centred below the main vignette. |
