The Metropolitan Bank of Canada was a Toronto-based chartered bank that operated from 1902 until its absorption by the Bank of Nova Scotia in 1914. This $100 note would have been issued right at the bank's founding year, making early-dated examples among the first instruments the institution ever put into circulation. High-denomination chartered bank notes of this period saw limited retail use — they moved primarily between merchants, brokers, and clearing houses.
ABNC's Ottawa facility handled a substantial share of Canadian chartered bank printing in this period, operating under contract arrangements that kept production local after earlier decades of sending plate work to New York.
