| Obverse description | At left, a group of three women in traditional dress represents the three associated states of Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, set against a lush tropical foliage background executed in multicolour intaglio. The denomination '100' is printed in large numerals at upper left and right, with the issuing authority inscription across the top and 'CENT PIASTRES' in bold letterpress at lower centre. Two signature panels for 'LE DIRECTEUR' and 'UN ADMINISTRATEUR' appear at upper right, above a vignette of a coastal landscape. |

| Reverse description | A detailed intaglio vignette of a multi-tiered Vietnamese temple or mausoleum structure occupies the centre-left, while the denomination is expressed in three scripts across the lower portion: romanised Vietnamese 'MOT TRAM DONG', Khmer, and Lao. Decorative floral and geometric guilloche borders frame all four sides in soft ochre and blue tones against a fine guilloche underprint. |
