A highly desirable Dominion of Canada 1 Dollar note from the 1917H issue, produced during the First World War and among the final series of Dominion paper money before the establishment of the Bank of Canada in 1935. These notes are celebrated for their classic engraved design and their important place in Canada's monetary history.

In 1917, 1 Dollar represented meaningful purchasing power—equivalent to approximately two to three days' wages for many laborers. It was enough to purchase a week's supply of groceries for a small family, several kilograms of meat or flour, or cover a few days' lodging and meals, making it one of the most commonly used denominations in everyday commerce.

Certified Choice UNC63 PPQ by Legacy Grading, this note remains uncirculated with exceptional paper quality, strong embossing, and excellent eye appeal. The PPQ (Premium Paper Quality) designation confirms its originality and superior preservation, making it a highly attractive example of this sought-after Dominion issue.

An exceptional and historically significant banknote, ideal for collectors of Canadian numismatics, Dominion of Canada issues, early federal currency, and world paper money.
