Old Money from The Sterling Bank of Canada in Toronto

The Sterling Bank of Canada opened in Toronto in 1905.  The leading forces behind the bank were Gabriel T. Somers and George B. Woods.  The bank was successfully managed.  However, outside forces like the failure of The Home Bank and a robbery put the Sterling Bank of Canada in a position where it had a difficult time earning money.  It merged with The Standard Bank in 1924.  Today bank notes from The Sterling Bank of Canada are collectible.  Our guide has more information about them.
