Well, another Canadian banknote, but this time I think I got a steal of a deal. Yes, it is missing a really big chunk of the top right corner, but the missing piece hardly takes away from the design, either on the front or back. I figure that this is the only reason why no one on eBay was willing to bid more than the $73 that I paid for it. Big mistake, I think, as this denomination and vintage is seldom seen on eBay (as a matter of fact, I don’t remember ever seeing this bill before). Ofcourse, this is a Dominion of Canada banknote.

One point of interest: the Krause description of Canada pick 24Ca states that the Gent on the front of the note is Edward, Prince of Wales. However, this looks to be a younger King George V to me. Is Krause wrong, or am I?? Can anyone confirm the name and title of this bloke? Here he is:
