| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Citadel of Cairo with its mosque vignette occupies the left side, while a tall minaret and mosque complex fill the right; camels with handlers appear in the lower left foreground. The centre carries the promise-to-pay legend in English and Arabic, with the denomination 'ONE HUNDRED Egyptian Pounds' set within an ornate guilloche panel. Bilingual Arabic and English inscriptions frame the note, with the issuer title 'NATIONAL BANK OF EGYPT' across the top and the Governor's manuscript signature at lower centre. |

The National Bank of Egypt was a private institution operating under British oversight for much of this period — not a central bank in the modern sense, though it held note-issuing authority. The 100-pound denomination was strictly a high-value commercial and interbank instrument; ordinary Egyptians would rarely have handled one. Bradbury Wilkinson printed the series at New Malden, and the span of signatures across three decades reflects not routine staff turnover but the disruptions of two wars and shifting British administrative control over Egyptian financial institutions.
Nixon's signature tenure overlaps almost exactly with the period of formal British military administration during the Second World War, when Egypt's strategic position made currency stability a genuine operational concern.
