| Reverse description | The reverse carries a symmetrical design with the denomination '100' repeated in guilloche cartouches at left and lower right, and bilingual value inscriptions in Arabic and Gujarati scripts across the central panels. The board's name is lettered at the top, with the dual denomination legend — ONE HUNDRED SHILLINGS OR FIVE POUNDS — repeated below in a formal typographic arrangement. No portrait vignette appears on the reverse; the composition relies on the geometric guilloche underprint and script panels for its decorative effect. |
