| 备注 |
The Bank of Hamilton was absorbed by the Canadian Bank of Commerce in 1924, making any note issued in its final years effectively a short-run curiosity. This 1922 issue would have circulated for at most two years before the acquiring bank began withdrawing Hamilton paper from use.
The American Bank Note Company's New York facilities handled most Canadian chartered bank printing through this period. The $25 denomination was always an awkward commercial value — too large for everyday retail, too small for major wholesale transactions — and was dropped by most Canadian banks well before Confederation-era reforms forced the issue.
