Canada Bank of Canada $20 1935 BC-9b "English" PMG Uncirculated 62. A stunning, Uncirculated example of this middle denomination of the short-lived 1935 series, and very rare in this lofty grade. The Canadian Banknote Company had a pesky habit of haphazardly cutting the sheets of the printed banknotes, which results in many of the notes being off center on one or more of the margins. This problem-free example exhibits the typical off-centering, which prevents a higher grade on this otherwise terrific example. Engraved from a photograph of then-Princess Elizabeth when she was 8 years old, this is the first banknote to feature the eventual Queen. Widely sought after across multiple collecting fields in the hobby, and very rare in Uncirculated grade. This variety features the second black seal variety, on the front, at right. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/canada-bank-of-canada-20-1935-bc-9b-english-pmg-uncirculated-62/a/4015-28269.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4015 HID08706262019 © 2019 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
