100 Ukrainian Hryvnias Banknote (1994 To 2001 Series)

100 Hriven’ Hryvnia / Karbovanets (Issued 1996)

The 1996 issue of the 100 Hriven’ banknote from the National Bank of Ukraine incorporates several security measures characteristic of currency production during Ukraine’s early independence period. The note features a watermark visible in the paper itself, which serves as a fundamental anti-counterfeiting feature. A security thread runs through the banknote, providing an additional layer of authentication that was essential for establishing confidence in the newly independent nation’s currency during the 1990s. The serial number and various design elements work in conjunction with these security features to create a comprehensive defence against fraudulent reproduction.

On the front, the banknote displays a formal portrait of a bearded gentleman positioned in the upper right portion of the note, rendered in sepia and brown tones that dominate the right-hand side of the design. The left side features ornate guilloché patterning in pale blue and green, with intricate geometric designs creating a sophisticated backdrop. The denomination 100 appears in the top left corner and again in the bottom left, presented in green numerals with decorative styling. Ukrainian text reading “НАЦІОНАЛЬНИЙ БАНК УКРАЇНИ” (National Bank of Ukraine) curves across the upper portion of the note, whilst “СТО ГРИВЕНЬ” (One Hundred Hryvnia) is inscribed at the base. The serial number A69461135 is clearly visible on the left side. A decorative ornamental circle in burnt orange occupies the lower right corner, whilst a small blue square appears in the bottom left. The colour scheme transitions smoothly from pale blue and cream tones on the left to warmer salmon and brown hues on the right.

The reverse presents an architectural composition centred on the image of Saint Michael’s Golden-Domed Monastery, rendered in grey and mauve tones against a cream background. To the left stands a tall monument or statue depicted in grey, providing a vertical counterbalance to the multi-domed church structure. The denomination 100 appears in decorative circles positioned in all four corners, each rendered in green with ornamental detailing. A banner across the upper portion bears the text “НАЦІОНАЛЬНИЙ БАНК УКРАЇНИ” (National Bank of Ukraine) in a formal serif typeface. Below the architectural scene, the text “СТО ГРИВЕНЬ” (One Hundred Hryvnia) appears in a decorative banner. The entire design is framed by intricate ornamental borders featuring floral and geometric patterns in green and rust tones, creating an elegant Victorian-influenced frame around the central imagery. The background displays subtle colour gradations and watermark effects.
