The Royal Bank of Canada's 1938 series was among the last private chartered bank issues before the Bank of Canada's monopoly on note circulation effectively pushed commercial bank notes out of everyday use. The chartered banks retained the legal right to issue, but the economics made it pointless — Bank of Canada notes had displaced them in practice by the early 1940s, and redemption pressures accelerated the series' retirement.
The dual denomination — 5 Dollars and 1 Pound 10 Pence — reflects the lingering sterling-denominated trade relationships with the British Caribbean, where Royal Bank branches operated extensively. By 1938, this was largely a legacy convention rather than a practical necessity.
