PC-2b $1 1866 PMG Very Good 10. This evenly circulated "Payable at Toronto" dollar comes from the first true Federal issue (save for the earlier overprinted Bank of Montreal examples). These notes entered circulation in January 1867, just months before Confederation, when the Province of Canada would disappear as a political entity, and circulated until replaced by the first Dominion issue in 1870. The Toronto variety had a limited printing of 150,000; however, very few have survived with all notes from the 1866 issue considered scarce in any grade. Currently, just seven notes are known in private hands. This historical example has been well preserved and resides in a comment free holder. From the Yuri Solovey Collection of Canada HID08701242017

Estimate: 6000-8000 USD
