Description

CANADA. Lot of (2). Bank of Canada. 1 Dollar, 1973. BC-46PP1. Front Progressive Proof & Vignette. PMG Choice Uncirculated 64.
Although specimens from this series are relatively common, a review of past auction records reveals a notable rarity: we cannot find a single proof example from any series after 1954 that has ever been sold in a public auction. This rarity extends to proofs from the multicolored series, bird series, and Journey series, which are virtually unseen in the market. This extreme scarcity highlights the unique nature of such pieces. Collectors are expected to show strong interest and engage in competitive bidding for this rarely encountered type. The rarity and distinct features of these proofs make them highly desirable and sought-after items among collectors and enthusiasts who are passionate about acquiring unique and exceptional banknotes. PMG Comments "Printer's Annotations, Selvage Included" on BC-46PP1.

Estimate: $400.00- $800.00
