Banknotes that are no longer in issue in Canada, and are being removed from circulation, are said to be "withdrawn from circulation".

Current issues

[edit]

The Bank of Canada, Canada's sole issuer of bank notes, currently issues five different denominations ($5, $10, $20, $50 and $100). Smaller denominations have been replaced by coins, and larger ones are felt to be no longer required in an era of electronic transmission of most large transactions. There are no plans to re-issue Canadian banknotes larger than $100.

Defunct currency

[edit]
$1 Dominion of Newfoundland note issued in 1920
25¢ Dominion of Canada note issued in 1923
$10 Bank of Montreal note issued in 1935

Notes issued by these former issuing authorities are considered to be withdrawn from circulation:

  • Colonial governments, prior to each entering Confederation.
  • The Dominion of Canada between 1870 and 1935, which issued notes in denominations of 25¢, $1, $2, $4, $5, $50, $100, $500, and $1,000
  • Canadian chartered banks, from pre-Confederation to 1944.

Withdrawn Canadian banknotes refer to the $1, $2, $25, $500, and $1,000 denominations issued by the across its historical series, which lost their status effective January 1, 2021, as they were no longer in production and circulation. These notes, spanning from the inaugural 1935 series onward, were gradually phased out for reasons including replacement by more durable coins, limited issuance as commemoratives, obsolescence of high-value denominations, and efforts to curb and . The $1 bill ceased issuance in 1989, replaced by the gold-colored "" coin to reduce handling costs and improve durability, while the $2 bill followed in 1996, supplanted by the "" for similar practical reasons. The $25 note was a unique commemorative denomination, issued solely in to mark the of King George V, with a limited print run of 160,000 notes (80,000 in each ) making it particularly rare today. The $500 note, also exclusive to the 1935 series and featuring a portrait of Sir , was discontinued shortly after introduction due to low demand for such high denominations in everyday use. The $1,000 note, present in multiple series until 2000, was withdrawn at the urging of law enforcement agencies, including the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, as part of a broader strategy to limit its use in illicit activities like , with remaining notes in circulation returned for destruction as deposited. Although no longer accepted for transactions, these withdrawn banknotes retain their full face value indefinitely and can be redeemed for current currency at any chartered financial institution in or directly through the Bank of Canada's redemption service by mail. This policy ensures holders are not penalized, while encouraging the use of modern, polymer-based notes from series like the 2001 Canadian Journey, 1986 Birds of Canada, and current Frontiers and Vertical designs, which incorporate advanced security features against counterfeiting. The withdrawal process, authorized by amendments to the in 2018 and 2019, reflects the evolution of 's monetary system since the Bank of Canada's establishment in 1935, balancing historical preservation with the need for secure, efficient circulation.

Historical Context

Pre-Bank of Canada Era

The issuance of the first Canadian banknotes began in 1817 when the , as a private chartered bank, introduced notes redeemable in specie and backed by its assets. These early notes, along with those from other private banks, were primarily denominated in English and circulated without bilingual text, reflecting the linguistic norms of the time until regulatory changes in the mandated French alongside English for official . Throughout the , multiple chartered banks, such as the , continued to issue their own notes under provincial charters, providing a decentralized system of paper money that served as a supplement to scarce coinage. The Bank Act of 1871 centralized regulation of these chartered bank notes, imposing requirements like a minimum denomination of $4, double for shareholders, and restrictions on issuance to unimpaired capital, which aimed to enhance stability and public confidence. Subsequent amendments, including the 1880 Act granting note holders a first on bank assets and the 1890 Act establishing redemption agencies and a Bank Circulation Fund, further standardized operations. For instance, the issued a $10 note in 1935 featuring its bank crest and allegorical designs typical of the era, redeemable at any branch and reflecting the ongoing role of chartered banks until the shift to centralized control. In parallel, the Dominion of Canada government began issuing its own notes in 1870 as a currency to address liquidity needs, initially limited to $1 and $2 denominations and backed by gold reserves, with issuance authority expanding post-Confederation in 1868. A notable example was the 25¢ fractional note of 1923, known as a "shinplaster," designed for small transactions amid economic constraints following , when silver coin shortages arose due to depreciated U.S. silver inflows; printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company, it featured a vignette and was redeemable in lawful money. Similarly, the Dominion of Newfoundland, as a separate entity until 1949, issued a $1 note in 1920 under its government treasury, portraying King George V and a caribou vignette to symbolize local identity, printed by the American Bank Note Company and circulated within the island's economy. These pre-1935 notes became defunct following the establishment of the in 1934 and its monopoly on issuance starting in 1935, which required chartered banks to gradually reduce and cease note production, prohibiting new issues by 1944 and completing full withdrawal by the early 1950s to unify the currency system.

Introduction of Bank of Canada Notes

The was established on March 11, 1935, through the Bank of Canada Act of 1934, which granted it the exclusive right to issue bank notes in , thereby assuming a monopoly on note issuance and phasing out the previous system of notes issued by chartered banks. This centralization aimed to regulate the money supply and promote economic and financial welfare during the , ending the fragmented issuance by private banks that had persisted since . The transition marked a significant shift toward a unified national currency under public control. The inaugural 1935 series consisted of unilingual notes available in either English or French, featuring portraits of British monarchs and former Canadian prime ministers on the fronts, with allegorical backs symbolizing prosperity in , industry, and . Unusual denominations, such as the $25 and $500 notes, were included to address the economic context of the era; the $25 was a limited commemorative issue in royal purple to honor King George V's Silver Jubilee on May 6, 1935, while the $500 facilitated large transactions amid recovery efforts. These notes, printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company, measured 152.4 by 73 mm and incorporated basic security features like raised ink and fine-line patterns. Subsequent series evolved to enhance security and accessibility. The 1937 series introduced bilingual English-French text on each note to comply with new legislation, with minor design updates retaining the 1935 themes. The 1954 series shifted to multicolored designs with off-center portraits and added anti-counterfeiting elements, including Canada's ; it faced controversy over a perceived "Devil's Face" in Queen Elizabeth II's hair on the $1 note, leading to re-engraving in 1956. Later iterations included the 1970 Scenes of Canada series, which depicted natural landscapes to deter counterfeiting, and the 1986 Birds of Canada series, featuring indigenous birds on reverses with advanced security features such as a colour-shifting metallic foil patch on higher denominations. The 2001 series continued this progression toward modern themes. Denominations like the $1 and $2 notes appeared across multiple series before their eventual withdrawal. All notes issued since remain redeemable at , underscoring their enduring legal status despite design evolutions, including the shift to substrates in series after 2011.

Withdrawn Denominations

$25 Jubilee Note

The $25 Jubilee Note was a one-time commemorative issued by the on May 6, , to honor the of King George V's reign. As part of the Bank's inaugural series, it represented a unique Depression-era experiment with non-standard denominations amid economic challenges, though it was never intended as a regular circulating currency. The note was printed in both English and French versions by the Canadian Bank Note Company, with a total print run of 160,000 notes, primarily aimed at collectors and special commemorative transactions rather than everyday use. The design emphasized ornate borders and allegorical elements typical of the era's formal baroque style, with the front featuring central portraits of King George V and Queen Mary, engraved by Edwin Gunn and Will Ford of the American Bank Note Company. The reverse depicted , engraved by Louis Delmoce of the same firm, underscoring the note's royal theme without incorporating Canadian landmarks. Rendered in a distinctive royal purple, the note measured 152.4 by 69.85 mm and lacked subsequent reissues in later series, distinguishing it from standard denominations. Following the Jubilee celebrations, the note was discontinued shortly after its 1935 issuance, as it was deemed unnecessary for ongoing circulation once the commemorative purpose had passed. Removed from production and distribution, it was not replenished or integrated into regular economic use, reflecting the stabilization of Canada's post-Depression. Its limited availability and high redemption rate—leaving only about 1,840 notes unreturned as of 2001—have contributed to its rarity and appeal among collectors today.

$500 Note

The $500 denomination was first introduced by the Dominion of Canada in 1911 as part of its federal currency issues prior to the establishment of the , featuring a crowned of Queen Mary of Teck at the center on a black and yellow-brown underprint, printed by the American Bank Note Company. This note measured approximately 152 mm by 73 mm and was produced in a total of 44,000 examples, primarily for high-value transactions among financial institutions. It was reissued in 1925 by the Dominion of Canada to update the series, incorporating a of King George V at the center, printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company, with similar dimensions and intended for institutional use. The issued its sole $500 note in the 1935 series, marking the transition to currency and featuring a sepia-toned design with a of Sir , Canada's first , on the front, engraved by Will Ford of the American Bank Note Company. The reverse depicted an allegorical figure representing and plenty, symbolizing agricultural abundance, and the note was printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company on paper measuring 150 mm by 73 mm. Approximately 20,900 English versions and 5,000 French versions were printed, though circulation remained limited due to low demand. These notes were designed for large institutional and business transactions during the economic recovery of the 1930s, reflecting the era's need for high-denomination in banking operations amid the Great Depression's aftermath. No $500 notes appeared in the 1937 series, which focused on bilingual updates and minor security enhancements like refined vignettes and inks for other denominations, signaling the denomination's obsolescence. The 1935 $500 notes were phased out as higher denominations proved impractical for , with the denomination discontinued shortly after its 1935 issuance and remaining notes phased out in the late . This withdrawal aligned with broader shifts in the early series toward improved anti-counterfeiting measures, such as enhanced engraving techniques. Today, surviving examples are extremely rare; for example, only about 12 of the 1935 notes are known in private hands. Recent auctions include a 1935 note selling for $337,812 (2021) and a 1911 note for $528,750 (2021) due to their scarcity and .

$1 Note

The $1 banknote, the lowest denomination issued by the , was introduced in as part of the inaugural series, featuring a green design with a portrait of King George V on the obverse and allegorical figures on the reverse. Separate English-only and French-only versions were produced, marking an early step toward linguistic inclusivity in Canadian currency. Printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company Limited, these notes circulated until the series' transition in 1937. The design evolved significantly with the 1954 Canadian Landscape series, which shifted to a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II—based on a photograph by —on the obverse, while the reverse depicted in . This series adopted a predominantly green color scheme and introduced raised ink for tactile security. However, an unintended in the Queen's hairstyle, perceived by some as a "Devil's Face," sparked public backlash, leading to a prompt reissue in 1955 where the hair was darkened to resolve the issue. A commemorative variant issued in for Canada's centennial replaced the landscape reverse with an image of the original Parliament Buildings from the 1860s. Bilingual legends were fully integrated starting with the 1937 series, and security features such as watermarks were added progressively across subsequent issues to combat counterfeiting. Subsequent series continued the $1 denomination's evolution. The 1969–1979 Scenes of Canada series featured Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a scene of a on the on the reverse, incorporating multicolored designs and organic geometric patterns for enhanced security; it was printed by both the Canadian Bank Note Company Limited and the British American Bank Note Company. The final series, Birds of Canada (1986), retained the green obverse with the Queen's portrait but used a black-and-green palette overall, with a reverse featuring a in a setting, incorporating fine-line . Across all series, the $1 notes were produced in substantial quantities to meet demand, with print runs totaling billions of units since 1935. Circulation peaked during the 1970s and 1980s as the denomination became ubiquitous for everyday transactions. Production of the $1 ceased in 1989 following the introduction of the $1 "" coin in 1987, which offered greater durability and long-term cost savings over paper notes prone to wear from frequent handling. The halted issuance to promote the coin's adoption, though existing notes remained in circulation until they naturally deteriorated, with full phase-out occurring by around 2002. Prior to withdrawal, $1 notes comprised a notable portion of the outstanding currency value, underscoring their economic significance in daily use.

$2 Note

The $2 banknote was introduced on September 2, 1986, as part of the Bank of Canada's Birds of Canada series, marking the first issuance of this denomination since the pre-1935 era. The note featured a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, engraved by Henry S. Doubtfire based on a photograph by Dennis Constantine, alongside the Parliament Buildings and the coat of arms. The reverse depicted two American robins in a natural setting, rendered in a distinctive terra cotta color scheme to enhance security against color photocopiers. This series also included the $1 note, which shared similar design principles but was discontinued earlier. Printed by both the Canadian Bank Note Company and the British American Bank Note Company, the $2 note incorporated security features tailored to lower denominations, including raised ink on the portrait, large numerals, and horizontal bands for tactile identification, as well as scattered green planchettes visible under light. It measured 152.4 by 69.85 mm and circulated for about a with relatively low volume, estimated in the hundreds of millions, reflecting its targeted role in everyday transactions. The denomination was intended to complement the impending replacement of the $1 note with a in 1987, reducing wear on $1 notes in vending machines and providing convenient change options. In colloquial Canadian usage, the $2 note was often called a "deuce." Production ceased in early 1996, with the note fully withdrawn from circulation by February 16 of that year, just days before the introduction of the $2 —known as the —on February 19. The shift to a was driven by long-term cost savings, as metal proved far more durable than paper notes, eliminating frequent replacement and reducing overall printing expenses by hundreds of millions over time. Although no longer for new transactions, existing $2 notes remain redeemable at face value through the .

$1,000 Note

The $1,000 banknote, the highest denomination ever issued by the , was introduced in 1935 as part of the inaugural series to facilitate large-value cash transactions in business and institutional settings, where electronic transfers were limited. It featured a portrait of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Canada's seventh , on the obverse, with allegorical figures representing protection and abundance on the reverse, printed in a distinctive pink hue that became a hallmark of later iterations. The note circulated widely for decades, serving primarily for interbank settlements and high-volume commercial exchanges rather than everyday retail use. Subsequent redesigns maintained the pink color scheme and shifted to portraits of Queen Elizabeth II starting with the 1954 Canadian Landscape series, which depicted the monarch on the obverse alongside a scenic reverse view of a over the Saguenay River fjord in L'Anse-Saint-Jean, Quebec. The $1,000 denomination was not updated in the 1969 Scenes of Canada series, continuing from the 1954 design until the 1986 Birds of Canada series introduced enhanced security features to combat counterfeiting from color photocopiers. In this series, the 1992 issuance featured Queen Elizabeth II and the Parliament Buildings on the obverse, with a pair of pine grosbeaks—Canada's provincial bird of —perched on a branch against a winter landscape on the reverse, incorporating innovations like a color-shifting metallic foil patch and raised ink portraits. No version of the $1,000 note was ever produced, distinguishing it from later low-denomination updates. The note remained in active circulation through the , with its high value making it efficient for bulk transfers, though usage declined with the rise of . By 2016, approximately 794,626 $1,000 notes were still outstanding, representing nearly three-quarters of the total value of all withdrawn Canadian banknotes at that time, valued at over $794 million. Its withdrawal was announced by the on May 8, 2000, at the urging of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), who cited its frequent use in and activities, prompting a policy shift to curb illicit financial flows. Production ceased immediately, and the notes lost status effective January 1, 2021, though they retain redeemable value at face amount.

Other Pre-1935 Defunct Notes

The $1 notes issued by the Dominion of Newfoundland in featured a black design on a blue underprint, with a portrait of King George V positioned at the left on the obverse and a prominent blue vignette of a caribou on the right; the reverse displayed the Great Seal of Newfoundland in blue. These notes served as exclusively within Newfoundland during its status as a separate dominion, reflecting the region's independent monetary system until its entry into . Following Newfoundland's union with in 1949, these notes were withdrawn from circulation as the province adopted Canadian currency, rendering them fully defunct with no redemption value at the today. Dominion of Canada fractional 25¢ notes, commonly known as shinplasters, were issued from 1900 to 1923 to address coin shortages, particularly during World War I when metal resources were diverted for wartime needs, leading to a scarcity of small change. The 1923 series, featuring King George V, were printed in green with intricate lathe work and counters on the reverse to enhance security. Over 5 million shinplasters circulated by 1929, but with the establishment of the Bank of Canada in 1935, these notes were recalled and the last were withdrawn by 1936, ceasing to hold any legal tender or redemption status. The $10 notes issued by the in 1935 represented one of the final issuances by chartered banks, dated January 2, 1935, just months before the commenced operations on March 11. These notes featured a black design with an olive-green tint, including vignettes of maple leaves and allegorical figures to symbolize Canadian identity and security. As the assumed control over note issuance, these chartered bank notes were phased out, with the final private issuances occurring in 1944 and all withdrawn from circulation by 1950, losing their monetary value entirely. These pre-1935 notes exhibit low survival rates due to systematic destruction upon redemption at issuing institutions, making surviving examples highly prized in numismatic circles for their historical and artistic merit rather than any . Collectors value them for their role in bridging the era of provincial and chartered bank currencies to the centralized system established in 1935, after which they held no further legal or redeemable status by the .

Current Status and Implications

As of January 1, 2021, the $1, $2, $25, $500, and $1,000 notes from all series ceased to be , following amendments to the Act introduced through the Budget Implementation Act, 2018, No. 1, and formalized by the Order Calling in Certain Notes (SOR/2019-146). This change aligned with the 2018 federal budget's objective to remove status from denominations no longer in production. Despite losing status, these notes retain their and can be redeemed indefinitely at full value through any office or chartered in , including by mail for those not in pristine condition. This policy applies to all notes issued since 1935, with no expiration on redemption eligibility, ensuring holders can exchange them for current at any time. The evolution of these policies reflects targeted measures against illicit activities and operational efficiency. Issuance of the $1,000 note was halted in 2000 primarily due to its association with and , though existing notes remained until the 2021 update. The broader 2021 removal of legal tender status for the specified denominations aimed to streamline the circulating supply by clarifying that only actively produced notes ($5, $10, $20, $50, and $100) hold transactional validity, reducing confusion in commerce without affecting redemption rights. Exceptions exist for certain pre-1935 notes issued by chartered banks or under authority, such as those from Newfoundland prior to in 1949, which are not redeemable at by the and serve primarily as collectibles. (Note: While liabilities for most and some chartered notes were assumed by the in 1935 and 1950, respectively, Newfoundland issues fall outside this scope due to their pre- origin.) As of December 31, 2016, outstanding liabilities for these "other bank notes" (including withdrawn denominations) totaled approximately $1.142 billion, with the majority attributable to $1,000 notes held outside active circulation. By December 31, 2024, liabilities for pre- notes had decreased to approximately $12.8 million, reflecting ongoing redemptions, though specific figures for withdrawn denominations are not separately reported in recent . The continues to track annual redemptions of such notes as part of its management.

Collectibility and Economic Impact

Withdrawn Canadian banknotes, particularly rare denominations like the 1935 $25 Jubilee and $500 notes, command significant premiums in the numismatic market due to their scarcity and historical uniqueness. For example, a 1935 $25 English note graded PMG Gem Uncirculated 65 sold for $32,860 CAD in 2022. Similarly, a 1935 $500 English note in About Uncirculated 53 condition sold for $228,000 CAD in March 2024. The $1,000 notes, while more common with millions printed across series, still attract collector premiums based on condition; values for 1988 examples typically range from $1,000 to $3,000 CAD or more depending on grade and market conditions. Professional grading by services such as Paper Money Guaranty (PMG) or Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) enhances marketability and value by verifying authenticity and condition on a standardized scale. Market dynamics for these notes are influenced by factors including rarity, preservation quality, and distinctive variants. The 1935 $25 note's low print run—140,000 English and 20,000 French—makes it the only such denomination ever issued by the , heightening demand among collectors. Condition remains paramount, as even minor wear drastically reduces value, while series-specific features like the "Devil's Face" anomaly in the 1954 $1 notes (an in Queen Elizabeth II's hairdo) can add a 20–50% premium for unmodified originals in crisp condition. Auctions through firms like and Spink regularly feature these items, with recent sales underscoring sustained interest; for instance, high-grade 1935 rarities continue to outperform expectations in competitive bidding. The economic ramifications of withdrawing these notes include reduced operational costs for the through streamlined circulation and decreased maintenance of legacy series. By ceasing production and status, particularly for high-denomination notes like the $1,000, the policy has curbed and facilitated anti-money laundering efforts, as large bills were often linked to illicit activities such as and . This shift has encouraged redemption of outstanding notes, minimizing long-term storage and handling expenses for financial institutions. Culturally, withdrawn notes contribute to public education and preservation efforts, with examples housed in institutions like the Museum, which features exhibits on historical designs from the 1935 series onward, including proposed motifs that never entered circulation. These displays highlight the evolution of Canadian currency, fostering appreciation for numismatic heritage through interactive presentations on security features and artistic elements. As of 2025, collector interest in pre-1954 paper notes has surged amid the ongoing transition to durable substrates, evoking for traditional designs and driving prices higher for rarities. No plans exist for reintroducing withdrawn denominations, as the prioritizes modern, secure series to meet contemporary economic needs.
