Yes it is. 2003 model.
Looks just like a 2002, but has the 100th anniversary badge below the speedo.

Doesn't make it a 100th anniversary model. Just a 2003 model.

Well dang. I guess the 100th models were the gunmetal with badges?

Sorry there, all were anniversary models except the black and silver were limited edition ones.
So for the purist, only the black and silver are "true" limited editions.
The 883R had a badge near the speedometer saying 2003 anniversary model, choice of orange/black or black/black.
Can be argued until 3003 but that the way the moco went, the tank's badge were installed on most of the 2003: 300,000 units sold.

The 2003 883R also had the 100th anniversary badge on the left side case and I have seen some with the decal on the front fender.
