| Obverse description | The obverse is executed in blue and green tones on a multicolour underprint of guilloche and traditional geometric patterning. An intaglio portrait of Nelson Mandela occupies the right-centre, rendered in fine line engraving and surrounded by a circular microtext vignette; to the left, the South African coat of arms appears above the Governor's signature and title. A vertical SARB windowed security thread runs through the centre, and a colour-shifting elephant hologram element appears at lower right, accompanied by an optically variable numeral cluster along the right margin. |

| Reverse description | The reverse, predominantly in blue and gold, centres on a bold intaglio vignette of an adult Cape Buffalo with calf standing in grass, set against a sunburst guilloche and traditional Ndebele-style geometric underprint. The denomination numeral '100' and 'RAND' appear in the upper left and lower right respectively, with the serial number printed twice — vertically in red at left and horizontally in black at upper right. Bank name inscriptions in Sepedi and Tsonga are rendered in letterpress along the upper and lower margins. |
