| Comments |
This is a novelty or commemorative item, not a legal tender banknote issued by the Bank of Canada or any chartered Canadian bank. Gold foil "notes" of this type — produced in the dimensions of genuine currency but printed on metallic substrate — are collector curiosities manufactured by private firms, typically marketed alongside similar pieces honoring historical figures across multiple nations.
No such item was ever authorized, printed, or circulated by a Canadian monetary authority. Cataloging it alongside genuine issues risks misrepresenting its status.
