The 100 rupiah coin was first introduced in 1973 as a cupronickel coin weighing 9.72 g (0.343 oz). It had a diameter of 28.5 millimetres (1.12 in) and was 1.77 mm (0.070 in) thick. Its obverse featured the denomination ("100") in its center with the lettering "BANK INDONESIA," two stars, and the mint year (1973).
As a result of the successful re-establishment of coinage in Indonesia, notes below 100 rupiah were withdrawn in Indonesia permanently from 1 September 1975 (at which point the exchange rate was fixed at 415 rupiah to the dollar, hence the largest denomination banknote to be withdrawn, the 50 rupiah note, was worth around US$0.10).

Local confidence in the currency was also undermined as the population followed suit, selling rupiah for dollars.
