| Obverse description | Portrait vignette of Lord Kelvin seated at left, with his name inscribed above in small lettering; the central field carries the denomination numeral 100 in large intaglio figures set within a guilloche underprint, flanked by the promise-to-pay legend and a facsimile signature of the Chief Executive. A circular medallion at upper right and a ship vignette at lower right complete the design, the whole printed in shades of pink and mauve on a light tint ground. |

| Reverse description | A detailed intaglio architectural vignette occupies the majority of the reverse, presenting a panoramic view of Glasgow University's Gilbert Scott Building with its distinctive Gothic Revival tower rising above the surrounding collegiate structures and tree-lined foreground. The denomination £100 appears in the upper left corner, and ornamental Celtic knotwork motifs are placed at the lower corners, the design rendered in tones of rose-pink and violet. |
