Reverse description The reverse is printed in a single orange-brown tone and carries a dense guilloche underprint centred on the denomination numeral '100' within an ornate lathe-work frame. The bank title 'EL BANCO POPULAR' is set across the upper portion of the central panel. A text block at the top of the note states that this bill circulates provisionally as a Banco Nacional note in accordance with a decree of October 1899. Border ornaments of repeating star and geometric motifs frame the entire composition.
