| Obverse description | Central vignette presents a neoclassical bank building rendered in blue intaglio, with a grand colonnaded facade receding in perspective to the right; a tall ornamental column rises at the left margin against a guilloche-patterned underprint in orange and blue. The denomination CENT PIASTRES appears in bold letterpress below the central vignette, with two signature lines for the Inspecteur Général and the Directeur de la Banque flanking the value tablet. An anti-counterfeiting legal warning in French is set in small type along the lower border. |

| Reverse description | Three traditional sailing junks with full sails are depicted in a central intaglio vignette, set against a calm bay with mountainous terrain in the background. The denomination is expressed in four scripts arranged around the vignette: Vietnamese (GIẤY BẠC MỘT TRĂM ĐỒNG) at top centre, Khmer numerals at left, Chinese characters at right, and a dollar-sign cartouche bearing $100 at the lower right. The overall design is printed in a single blue tone with fine guilloche borders framing the composition. |
