Product Description
4 x $20 Bank Note 1937 Complete Prefix for Coyne/Towers Banknotes – Bank of Canada
This is a complete prefix type set of 1937 Coyne/Towers for $20. You will receive 4 notes, one of each prefix available on the signature.
The 1937 issue of banknotes signalled the first time Canadian banknotes were fully bilingual, meaning there was no longer a need to produce separate English and French language notes.
You will notice that the denominations and text on the left half of the note are in English, while the right half of each note is in French.
A second major change that began with this issue is related to Sheet Numbers and Check Letters. Every generation of Canadian banknotes to date used an identical “sheet number” on all notes, and added a “check letter” to differentiate the notes on each sheet.
Starting in 1937 each note received a unique “serial number”, which eliminated the need to add check letters.
The notes are in fine or better condition and may contain holes, tears or graffiti.
