Description

Canada Bank of Canada $50 1935 BC-13 PMG Choice Extremely Fine 45 EPQ. A simply fantastic example of this rarely seen denomination. Only 131,000 notes were printed in English, and it is not clear whether all were issued. Additionally, the vast majority of the this type were redeemed beginning in 1937. At the time of cataloging, there are less than ten examples graded finer than this offered example. EPQ status adds to the desirability of this seldom seen type. Featuring the then-Duke of York, Prince Albert, this portrait was repurposed for the 1937 series once he ascended the throne as King George VI. From the Harry M. Eisenhauer Collection
