The legend MONGOLIA arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, while the traditional Mongolian script inscription reading Monggol Ulus appears vertically in the right field. The denomination 100, followed by its equivalent in Mongolian script, is prominently displayed in the lower field beneath the emblem. The design is rendered against a polished proof-like field with milled border. |
