| Opmerkingen |
Marysville, now absorbed into Fredericton, was founded as a model industrial village by cotton mill owner Alexander Gibson in the 1880s — one of the more complete examples of company town planning in nineteenth-century New Brunswick. The 1962 centennial note was issued by a local committee to mark the town's hundredth year, placing it firmly in the category of municipal scrip or promotional currency rather than any formal monetary instrument.
These committee-issued centennial pieces from small Canadian towns are chronically under-documented. Survival rates depend almost entirely on whether locals kept them as souvenirs rather than attempting to redeem them.
