Obverse description Printed in black and red, the obverse carries a Seated Liberty vignette at left, the figure holding a plaque in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. At centre, the Mexican national arms vignette shows an eagle clutching a serpent in its beak, perched on a nopal cactus rising from Lake Texcoco, with the twin volcanoes Popocatépetl and Ixtaccíhuatl visible in the background. Red serial numbers appear on the note, with the issuing authority and decree text arranged in the surrounding letterpress panels.

Reverse description Printed entirely in blue with two applied red circular treasury seals, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche framework with three large rosette medallions. At centre, a vignette reproduces both faces of a one-peso silver coin of the República Mexicana — the cap-and-rays liberty motif on its obverse visible within the inner oval — surrounded by fine lathe-work engine-turned borders. Denomination numerals "100" appear in each corner within ornamental cartouches.
