| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed predominantly in shades of blue, the obverse is divided between a pale left panel and a richly illustrated right field. The left panel carries the issuer inscription 'PITCAIRN ISLANDS' in stylised lettering and a horizontal dark-blue band bearing the denomination '100 PI POUND', with a decorative vignette and a cursive signature in the lower left corner. The right field presents a full-colour watercolour-style vignette of HMS Bounty under full sail on a stormy sea, surmounted by the Pitcairn Islands coat of arms in blue tones, with the large numeral '100' and the legend 'ONE HUNDRED PI POUND' across the lower portion; a vertical serial number appears at the right margin. |

Pitcairn issues polymer notes not through any central banking infrastructure — the island has fewer than fifty permanent residents and no commercial bank — but as a collector-targeted legal tender program administered from outside the territory. The HMS Bounty denomination exists squarely in that category: technically valid currency on an island where barter and New Zealand dollars handle actual daily transactions.
The Bounty connection is the entire economic rationale for Pitcairn's numismatic program. Descendants of the mutineers still live there, and the name sells.
