| Obverse description | The Ugandan coat of arms, set against an outline map of Uganda, is positioned at left centre, with the national motto scroll reading 'FOR GOD AND MY COUNTRY' beneath the shield supported by a kob and crested crane. A large interlocking guilloche vignette in red and black occupies the centre, with the denomination numeral '100' rendered in intaglio within, flanked by ornate rosette underprints in blue at upper left and a Bank of Uganda seal vignette at lower right. The issuer name in red letterpress and the bilingual denomination inscription in English and Swahili appear across the upper portion, with a legal tender clause below. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette presents an intaglio pastoral landscape with two cattle grazing in the foreground beneath tall trees, with rolling hills and a broad river or lake extending to the horizon in a detailed engraved scene. The composition is framed by a large guilloche arch in teal and gold, with guilloche rosette panels bearing the numeral '100' at upper left and right corners, and two rampant kob figures flanking the lower denomination panel. The issuer name is inscribed at top and the bilingual denomination legend appears within a decorative cartouche at the base. |
