Part of the celebrations included the issue of a special 1 dollar note (P84a) It followed the regular design for the 1 dollar bill but had the unusual feature of the serial numbers being replaced by the date of the centenary 1867-1967. We are delighted to offer Crisp Uncirculated examples of this very unusual dollar.
We offer Uncirculated examples of the new Canada Polymer 10-dollar bill released in 2018. (PNew) It is a first for a Canadian banknote. It is printed vertically. For the first time, a Canadian-born woman appears on her own on a Canadian banknote. She was Viola Desmond, a businesswoman who, in 1946, challenged racial segregation by refusing to leave a whites-only area of the Roseland Theatre. It was the most publicized incident of racial discrimination in Canadian history. The back has an illustration of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights alongside an extract from the Canadian Charter of Rights. Uncirculated.
Canada marked the fact that Queen Elizabeth II became the longest-reigning British monarch in September 2015 by issuing a special 20-dollar note (P111).

In a see-through security panel to the right, there is a holographic strip which includes a youthful portrait of Queen Elizabeth taken by Karsh and the words declaring, in both English and French, that hers is a historic reign. In crisp, uncirculated condition.
