DC-10 1882 Dominion of Canada $4 Various-Courtney, Check Letter D, BCS Certified F12 (tears, tape)
The Four Dollar Note was issued in 1882, 1900, and 1902, with a number being produced in 1911 due to an unexpected need for large supplies of paper currency. After 1911, no further $4 notes were ever ordered. Though the $4 denomination was important in Colonial times due to it's equivalency to the Halifax one-pound currency, it had become obsolete. By 1912, the denomination was being withdrawn from circulation and replaced by the $5 Dominion notes. According to the Charlton Standard Catalogue: Canadian Government Paper Money (34th Edition, Charlton Press, 2023, J. Rutkowski), "only small quantities of the outstanding $4 notes were turned in after the end of 1915, and by 1950 all but $29,000 worth of all dates of issue had been withdrawn, and most of those still outstanding have probably been lost through fire and decay."
Face Design: AN ornate number 4, cherubs, and the Victoria Bridge at left, the Marquis of Lorne in centre, and the Great Seal of Canada at right.
Back Design: Lathework, counters, the numerical denomination in centre, with DOMINION OF CANADA printed over top.
