Bank of Canada 1937 One Hundred Dollar Bill

Description:   Canadian $100 bank notes from 1937 feature a portrait Sir John A Macdonald. Each denomination from 1937 has a different color tint, just like modern currency does today. One hundred dollar bills are a green color. The first thing you will probably notice is that the left side of each bank note has English text and the right hand side has French text. This was a change from 1935 bank notes, which were printed with either just French or just English text. 1937 $100 bills were printed by The Canadian Bank Note Company, Limited.

Varieties:   J.A.C. Osborne and G.F. Towers, D. Gordon and Towers, and J.E. Coyne and Towers signed 1937 $100 bills from The Bank of Canada. Each signature combination is considered as a different variety. Bank notes with the Osborne signature are very rare.
