The Dominion Bank was a mid-sized Toronto chartered bank that operated from 1871 until its 1955 merger with the Toronto-Dominion Bank. Under the Bank Act framework governing Canadian chartered banks, institutions were permitted to issue their own circulating notes — a system that persisted until the Bank of Canada's monopoly on currency issuance was gradually enforced through the 1930s and 1940s. The $20 denomination sat at the upper end of practical commerce; high enough that surviving examples in circulated grades often show relatively light wear.
ABNC's Ottawa facility handled much of the chartered bank printing for Canadian institutions during this period, operating semi-independently from the company's New York headquarters.
