Canadian Banknotes

I'm sorry to be the bearer of disappointing news, but there were no Edward VIII Canadian $1 bills issued. As a Prince he was on the 1935 orange coloured $5 bill, but that's it. The dollar bill you have is probably a George VI. It's an awful picture of him, and of course being family the two men do resemble one another. My family have both a $1 bill and a $10 bill, which my mother believed for many years to be Edward VIII, but a little research showed me that this is not so. The Bank of Canada's website shows all the banknotes they've ever issued. You can get close ups which should help you determine what you have. http://www.bankofcanada.ca/en/banknotes/general/character/index.html I don't know the value for what you do have, since I have not explored selling mine, but this website should at least let you confirm the identity of what you have, and finding a value should be easier from there.

This coin featuring an Atlantic mackeral and Queen Elizabeth II (1952-) commemmorates the Confederation Centennial. It contains .06 of an ounce of silver and may be worth up to about $1.50. There were 63 million minted that one year. You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info. Brad

According to the Bank of Canada the old cotton paper notes are 115 μm and the new polymer bank notes are slightly thinner 91 μm.

An μm is a micrometer. The notes are so thin they have to be measured in micrometers.

The value of the 1982 Canadian dollar varied throughout the year due to inflation and exchange rates. In 1982, the Canadian dollar was worth approximately 0.75 to 0.80 US dollars, depending on the time and economic conditions. Adjusted for inflation, the purchasing power of a 1982 Canadian dollar would be significantly lower today, reflecting changes in the economy and cost of living over the decades.

The first Canadian silver dollar was issued in 1935. It was issued by the Royal Canadian Mint to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V. The voyager design used for the coin was used on the dollar until 1986 and then was replaced with a Loon in 1987 giving the modern day dollar coin the nickname Loonie.

There was some controversy about the original 1954 issue Canadian notes after it was noticed that part of The Queen's hair looked like the 'Devil's Face', prompting the Bank of Canada to reissue all notes with a modified portrait of The Queen. There was also a mixture of signatures in this year, making 4 different variations, worth (in mint uncirculated condition);

Devil's Face - Coyne/Towers : $150

Devil's Face - Beattie/Coyne : $115

Modified - Coyne/Towers : $10

Modified - Beattie/Coyne : $7

Its value would depend on its age and condition. A used, modern example would be worth exactly 50 Canadian Dollars in any (Canadian) store. A mint condition uncirculated 1975 note would be worth $200 and older ones considerably more.

There are different currencies called "franc". The countries that use francs include Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and most of the Francophone countries of Africa. As a result, 2 franc may have a different value in US dollars depending on the country were such currency is in use.

If one takes the French franc (FRF) as the reference (although it has been replaced by the Euro in 2002), then 2 francs is worth $0,390599 today.

On the other hand, 2 Swiss francs would be worth $1,90453 right now.

In 1967 Canada printed the dollar bill with no serial number on purpose and instead let the year 1967 substitute for the serial number. This means that your Canadian dollar bill is only worth its face value.

A portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is on all Canadian coins minted since 1953.

The other side of the Canadian penny has a maple leaf, the symbol of Canada.
