Canadian municipal scrip issued for homecoming celebrations occupies an odd corner of notaphily — legally it exists as a promotional coupon rather than currency, but these pieces circulated freely among merchants during the event weekend. St. Gregor is a small predominantly Ukrainian-Catholic settlement in the Quill Lakes district, founded by settlers from Galicia around 1905, and homecoming issues like this one were common across Saskatchewan's ethnic-founded villages during the centennial-era boom of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Survival rates are erratic. Many were redeemed and discarded; others were pocketed as souvenirs and survived uncirculated in scrapbooks.
