| Opmerkingen |
The dual denomination — 5 Dollars on one face, 1 Pound 10 Pence on the other — reflects the Royal Bank's substantial Caribbean and Newfoundland operations during a period when sterling-denominated accounts still mattered to those branches. Newfoundland did not join Confederation until 1949, and the pound remained legal tender there throughout the 1930s. A single note serving both currency systems was a practical solution, not a novelty.
The Canadian Bank Note Company had been producing this dual-face series for the Royal Bank since the 1910s, with successive issues refining the format. By 1938 it was a mature design, issued for use in branches where tellers needed flexibility across currency zones without maintaining separate note stocks.
