In March 1986, the Bank of Canada introduced the first of a new series of notes, completely redesigned to assist the visually impaired, increase efficiency of high speed sorting equipment, and provide improved security against counterfeiting.
Security elements include the use of microprinting. A background rainbow of wavy lines on the face of the note is composed entirely of microprinted digits corresponding to the value of the note, while the fine horizontal lines through the center portion of the note’s face are actually a repeated microprinted legend, in which the numeral corresponds to the denomination of the note.
This is a replacement which is in Choice UNC (CUNC) condition.
The back features native Canadian birds. The serial number appears in black on each half of the back at the bottom of the note. A bar code is included at the bottom of the reverse side to be read by high speed sorting equipment at the Bank of Canada. The serial number consists of a three-letter prefix and a seven-digit serial. The Bank of Canada’s $5 note features Sir Wilfred Laurier on one side and belted kingfisher on the reverse. Note is composed primarily in terra cotta colour.
