| Opmerkingen |
The Molsons Bank was one of Canada's longest-surviving chartered banks, tracing its origins to 1855 and the Molson brewing family's financial interests. By 1922, however, the institution was already in its final years — it merged with the Bank of Montreal in 1925, making this note part of the last generation of Molsons issues ever produced.
The British American Bank Note Company, operating out of Ottawa, held longstanding contracts with several of the chartered banks and produced most of Molsons' later series. Notes from this final pre-merger period were issued in relatively modest quantities, and circulated examples that survived the redemption process are considerably scarcer than their face frequency suggests.
