Obverse description The state emblem of Transnistria occupies the central field, depicting a Soviet-style coat of arms with a hammer and sickle surmounted by a five-pointed star, flanked by wheat sheaves and set above a landscape with the rising sun. The circular legend ПРИДНЕСТРОВСКИЙ РЕСПУБЛИКАНСКИЙ БАНК arcs around the upper periphery in Cyrillic characters. The denomination 100 РУБЛЕЙ and the date 2001 appear in the lower portion of the field, separated by raised dots. The design is executed in a prooflike finish with a highly polished mirrored field contrasting against frosted relief elements.

Reverse description A detailed architectural rendering of the Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ (Sobor Rozhdestva Khristova) in Tiraspol dominates the central field, depicted in a precise frontal elevation with multiple onion domes surmounted by Orthodox crosses, arched windows, and a symmetrical facade reflecting traditional Russian Orthodox ecclesiastical architecture. The inscription СОБОР РОЖДЕСТВА ХРИСТОВА arcs along the upper portion of the field in Cyrillic lettering. The year of the cathedral's completion, 2000, appears to the right in the upper field, while the city name Г. ТИРАСПОЛЬ is inscribed along the lower field. The prooflike finish provides a sharp contrast between the mirrored background and the frosted architectural relief.
