| Opmerkingen |
The Commercial Bank of Canada, chartered in 1857 and headquartered in Kingston, operated a branch network that extended to smaller Ontario towns including Collingwood, then a rapidly growing lake port on Georgian Bay. Branch-designated notes of this type carried the branch name in the place-of-payment field rather than the Kingston head office, a practice that helped manage local redemption obligations.
The bank collapsed in 1867 — one of the more consequential Canadian bank failures of the Confederation period — making surviving branch-issue notes from any of its smaller offices genuinely uncommon. Collingwood-payable examples are among the scarcer branch designations in the series.
