Obverse description A spare letterpress note printed in black on plain cream paper, entirely devoid of vignette, guilloche, or ornamental underprint. Two bold rectangular panels bearing the numeral '100' occupy the left and right margins, flanking a central text block headed 'TREASURY NOTE.' in large roman capitals, with the promissory clause and payability terms set in smaller roman type below. The date and two manuscript signatures — those of the enterer and the Treasurer — are hand-completed in ink, the only handwritten elements on an otherwise wholly typeset surface.

Reverse description The reverse is entirely unprinted save for the numeral '100' in plain black type placed at each of the four corners, serving as denomination indicators against the bare warm tan paper stock, with no further design, text, or ornamentation of any kind.
