| 正面描述 | Printed in dark green and black intaglio over a fine guilloche underprint, the obverse carries two symmetrically placed oval portrait vignettes flanking a central guilloche medallion with the numeral '10'; the left vignette presents an elderly gentleman in formal attire, while the right vignette portrays a second male dignitary. The bank title 'THE DOMINION BANK' arches along the upper border, with 'TORONTO' and the date '3RD JAN. 1938' inscribed centrally below, and corner numeral guards repeat '10' throughout the design field. The denomination 'TEN DOLLARS' occupies a bold panel at the lower margin, with the printer's imprint along the base. |

The Dominion Bank was a Toronto-chartered institution founded in 1871, operating independently until its 1955 merger with the Bank of Toronto to form Toronto-Dominion. By 1938, Canadian chartered bank notes were already in their final years — the Bank of Canada Act of 1934 had established the central bank and begun transferring the note-issuing privilege away from the chartered banks. Dominion Bank issues from this period were still legal tender but increasingly displaced by Bank of Canada notes, which became the sole legal currency by 1950.
C.H. Carlisle served as president of the bank; A.R. Brace as general manager — an unusual pairing for signature authority, as most contemporaries used president and cashier.
