Obverse description The obverse is engraved in green ink with a central panoramic vignette of the Stockholm waterfront with ships, flanked by two ornate guilloche medallions each bearing the numeral '100'. Below the cityscape vignette, the bank name 'STOCKHOLMS ENSKILDA BANK' appears in large letterpress text above a redemption clause in Swedish. To the lower left, an allegorical female figure representing Svea stands beside a lion and a shield bearing the Swedish coat of arms, while to the lower right an intaglio portrait of a crowned medieval king appears within an oval frame. The denomination 'ETTHUNDRA Riksdaler' is rendered in bold script at center, with the place and date 'Stockholm 1872' and a serial number line below.

Reverse description The reverse is executed entirely in intaglio with an intricate engine-turned guilloche pattern filling the entire field, incorporating repeated microtext 'Etthundra Riksdaler' woven throughout the lathe-work underprint. A central ornate medallion bears the numeral '100' within a complex geometric frame, surmounted by the word 'Stockholms' in script and flanked by two additional guilloche rosettes. The inscription 'ENSKILDA BANK' appears below the central medallion, and the word 'STOCKHOLM' is printed vertically in large letters along both the left and right borders. A printer's imprint appears at the lower margin.
