Les Éditions Numispro is a Quebec-based publisher that has produced commemorative novelty notes for the Canadian collector market since the 1980s. These pieces carry no legal tender status and were never intended for circulation — they are souvenir items sold directly to collectors, typically through hobby shows and specialty retailers.
The Canada 150 issue marked the sesquicentennial of Confederation. Dozens of private publishers and retailers produced similar commemorative items that year, making this a crowded field with no particular scarcity premium.
