| Opmerkingen |
The Crown Bank of Canada was a short-lived Toronto institution, chartered in 1904 and failed outright by 1907 — one of the more abrupt collapses in Canadian banking history. Notes issued under its name had almost no window of legitimate circulation before the bank went under, and dominion authorities moved quickly to redeem and destroy outstanding paper.
Printed by BABN in Ottawa, this is among the earliest notes the Crown Bank put into the field. Survivors are genuinely scarce, and most known examples show little wear precisely because so few made it far from the teller's window before the doors closed.
