| Comments |
The 1989 Canadian $10 belongs to the "Birds of Canada" series — a deliberate policy shift away from the purely architectural reverses of the preceding Scenes of Canada issues. The series also marked a significant upgrade in security design, with a metallic security thread introduced across the denomination range in response to growing counterfeiting pressure through the late 1980s.
BA International, the successor identity to British American Bank Note, printed this domestically. Thomas Hipschen's engraving work was a consistent presence across multiple Canadian series of this period.
