Lot Title:
|
Ten Adopted and Unadopted Canadian Bank Note Specimens.
|
Description:
|
A group of Canadian one-sided proof notes, representing higher denominations ($20 and above). These represent the development process for redesign of the Canadian notes from the turn of the last century. Twenties and Fifties are nicely matched up, and an unadopted $100 back is included. Apparently, part of the decision in process was whether to go with red or green ink on the back of the $20. Brief description is as follows: P-51366, Charlton-620-50-06, mounted trial specimen of $20 front ADOPTED; same except "1898" struck out for "1911"; same except ""PRESIDENT" moved; P-51366, Charlton-620-50-06, mounted trial specimen of $20 back; same with approval signatures; unadopted back in red printing; P-51367, Charlton-620-48-04-08, mounted trial specimen of $50 front, with "1898" struck out for "1911"; P-51367, Charlton-620-48-04-08, mounted trial specimen of $50 back ADOPTED; same with required addition of "THE" indicated; andmounted back of $100 UNADOPTED. A superb group for framing. (Available elsewhere: sixteen additional one-sided proofs.)
This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
