Toronto, UC- Bank of Upper Canada $5 Ch. # 770-22-02-08P Face Proof This was one of the most influential early banks, having established a close relationship with the government from the moment of its organization. Its failure in 1866 marked the first important bank failure in Canadian history, with its shareholders losing all their capital, which at one time amounted to over three million dollars and the government losing another million dollars. Tonight's offering is a lovely green-tinted Face Proof and represents a note that is prohibitively rare in issued form. PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 EPQ. 4 POCs.
Estimate: 500-1000 USD
