Reverse description The central vignette on the reverse presents a large intaglio rendering of a river-god mask — representing the spirit of the River Erne — portrayed as a bearded male face with fish and aquatic foliage entwined in his hair, set within an ornate rectangular frame surrounded by intricate guilloche scrollwork. Denomination counters '100' appear in dark intaglio at both the left and right margins. The overall design is printed in dark olive-green on a pale yellow-cream ground, with Celtic chain border ornaments running the full perimeter.
