| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Equatorial Guinea occupies the upper central field, depicting a silk-cotton tree (Ceiba pentandra) on a shield, flanked by six six-pointed stars above and a scroll bearing the motto UNIDAD PAZ JUSTICIA below. Two large elephant tusks cross diagonally behind the shield, their tips pointing upward to the left and right. The legend REP. DE GUINEA ECUATORIAL arcs around the upper periphery, while the denomination 100 PESETAS GUINEANAS is inscribed along the lower rim. The fineness mark LEY 9999 appears to the lower left of the shield and the date 1970 to the lower right, with a small oval fineness stamp visible at the base of one tusk. |

| Reverse description | A high-relief medallic rendering of Francisco de Goya's celebrated painting La Maja Desnuda occupies the central field, depicting a reclining nude female figure viewed frontally, reposing upon a draped chaise longue with her arms raised behind her head and her gaze directed toward the viewer. The composition faithfully reproduces the Romantic masterwork's soft contours and drapery detail in finely engraved relief against a polished mirror field. The legend MAJA DESNUDA arcs in bold letters across the upper portion of the coin, while the artist's name GOYA appears in the lower field flanked by two small five-pointed stars on either side. |
