| Beschrijving voorzijde | The right-centre field is occupied by an intaglio-printed portrait vignette of Mao Zedong facing three-quarters left, inscribed below with his name and life dates '毛泽东 1893-1976' in fine letterpress. To the left, a large colour-shifting numeral '100' in an intricate guilloche rosette underprint is flanked by the intaglio denomination '壹佰圆' set within a Prunus mume floral medallion; the national emblem of the People's Republic appears at upper left against a dense red guilloche background. A vertical optically variable ink numeral strip and a column of ink-shift security numerals run along the right margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
The 2015 issue was the first significant security upgrade to the 100 Yuan since the fifth series launched in 1999. China Banknote Printing and Minting Corporation added a holographic stripe and upgraded the optically variable ink on the numeral, responding directly to a sustained counterfeiting problem that had drawn public complaints and periodic warnings from the People's Bank throughout the 2000s. The security thread was also changed — wider, with a color-shift effect visible under tilt.
Pick 909 circulated alongside unmodified fifth-series 100 Yuan notes, which remained legal tender, creating a two-variant situation in everyday commerce that lasted several years.
