| Descripción del anverso | The Italian Kingdom coat of arms appears at upper centre, supported by two putti, with encircled legal text panels at lower left and upper right, and encircled numeral 100 at upper left and lower right. The denomination CENTO LIRE is held by a putto facing upward at centre left and by a putto facing downward at centre right, while at lower centre a seated Italia Turrita turns benevolently toward two reclining children at her feet — one holding a fishing hook as an allegory of Commerce, the other a gear as an allegory of Industry. Heads of Mercury (Hermes) occupy the lower right and upper left corners, heads of Bacchus (Dionysus) the lower left and upper right, all interconnected by elaborate floral and foliate guilloche ornaments rendered in grey-green intaglio, with the central text in black and a light violet underprint repeating the denomination CENTO and 100; a matrix strip on the left border carries the inscription REGNO D'ITALIA in grey-green. |

Banca Nazionale nel Regno d'Italia was not Italy's central bank in any modern sense — it was the dominant but perpetually contested issuing institution in a country that still permitted several regional banks to print competing currency. The 1882 date places this note squarely in that uneasy pluralism, nearly two decades before the Banca d'Italia absorbed it in 1893 following the catastrophic Banca Romana scandal, which exposed fraudulent over-issuance across the Italian banking system and forced a long-overdue consolidation.
Printing at the San Teodoro facility in Rome was handled entirely in-house by the state apparatus — unusual for the period, when major European issuers routinely contracted private security printers abroad. The watermark remains the sole mechanical security feature on this type.
