Banknote Book® Price Guide

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Bank of Canada series of Canada in the World Currency contains 254 distinct entries with CPG® values between $12.00 and $7,500.00.

The Bank of Canada (BOC) was founded on 3 July 1934 as a privately owned corporation and given the responsibility through an Act of Parliament to regulate the country’s money supply and to “promote the economic and financial welfare of Canada.” Accordingly, it was also given the exclusive right to issue banknotes. On 11 March 1935, the Bank of Canada began operations, and in 1938 it became a Crown corporation belonging to the federal government. For more information, visit www.bankofcanada.ca.
