Our first series of Canadian currency was printed in March 1935, the same day the Bank of Canada opened its doors. This series is the only one to include the $500 and $25 notes, with the $25 being the only banknote to ever showcase a "foreign scene;" Windsor Castle. Another interesting note, it's the only series to print 2 sets, English and French. If you look close on the $20 banknote, you'll find the young Princess Elizabeth.
I want to continue to honor our unique, colorful history of currency and hope to spark long ago memories of our past.
