In fact, over a period of 175 years, morethan 100 such banks existed, each issuing its own denominations, including$3, $5, $6, $7 and $8 notes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis all changed when the Bank of Canada arrived on the economic scene in1935. The Bank was established through an act of Parliament to regulate thecountry's money supply and to \"promote the economic and financial welfareof Canada\"-responsibilities that gave it the exclusive right to issue Canada'sbank notes while the notes from chartered banks were gradually removedfrom circulation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Bank of Canada's inaugural notes were introduced on March 11, 1935 andincluded denominations of $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100, $500 and $1,000with a $25 note issued later that year to commemorate the silver jubilee ofKing George V.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe designs featured a member of the royal family or former Canadianprimeminister on the front with an allegorical figure representing a different aspectof Canadian industry or culture on the back. Each denomination was originallyavailable in English or French until bilingual notes were introducedin 1937.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40785108205643,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.003429 - BC0964","price":350.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_a6e91bb6-6b2c-4a31-bf5c-73cb13cbaa63.jpg?v=1717054454","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2010-d50-first-canadian-banknote-75th-anniv-pf-5_032oz_-_9999-bc0964","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
