Obverse description	Portrait of Nezahualcóyotl, the pre-Columbian Aztec poet-king of Texcoco, occupies the right-center of the note in intaglio print against a rose-red guilloche underprint, with the issuer inscription BANCO DE MEXICO arched across the top and the denomination 100 / CIEN PESOS rendered at lower left and right. A vignette of a pre-Columbian sculptural motif appears to the upper left of the portrait, alongside the serial number and series designation. Two signature facsimiles appear at lower center beneath the issuer's seal.

Reverse description	The reverse is dominated by a large intaglio vignette of the stone statue of Xochipilli, the Aztec god of art, games, and flowers, seated on an ornate carved pedestal at center-left, rendered in deep rose-red tones. Geometric and pre-Columbian decorative motifs fill the surrounding guilloche panels on both sides, with the issuer name BANCO DE MEXICO at upper center and the denomination 100 / PESOS / CIEN at various positions. The overall composition draws on Aztec iconographic elements to frame the central sculptural figure.
