| 正面描述 | A bouquet of mixed plants, prominently featuring a thistle at centre, occupies the majority of the field, rendered in bold relief with naturalistic detail. The design incorporates leafy stems and floral heads rising symmetrically from a common base. The circular legend AGRICULTURE & COMMERCE arcs across the upper portion of the field, while BAS CANADA appears along the lower arc. A fine toothed border frames the entire design. |

The Banque du Peuple was a short-lived Montreal institution founded in 1835 to serve the French-Canadian commercial class, who were effectively frozen out of credit by the English-controlled Bank of Montreal. Its token issues emerged from a practical crisis: small change was chronically scarce in Lower Canada throughout the 1830s, and private banks were legally permitted to fill the gap. The political backdrop was anything but calm — 1838 was the year following the failed Patriote rebellions, with Lord Durham's controversial inquiry underway and the colony under special council rule.
The bank itself collapsed in 1839, making its token issues a one-year window of production at most.
