A spectacular Dominion of Canada 1 Dollar note from the 1923E issue featuring the sought-after Black Seal variety. Issued during the final years of Dominion paper money before the creation of the Bank of Canada in 1935, these notes are among the most iconic and desirable in Canadian numismatics. The Black Seal variety is particularly popular with collectors and represents an important chapter in Canada's monetary history.

In 1923, 1 Dollar represented meaningful purchasing power—equivalent to approximately two to three days' wages for many laborers. It was sufficient to purchase a week's worth of groceries for a small family, several kilograms of meat or flour, or cover a few days' lodging and meals, making it an essential denomination in everyday Canadian commerce.

Certified Gem UNC65 PPQ by Legacy Grading, this exceptional note remains fully uncirculated with razor-sharp detail, vibrant originality, and outstanding eye appeal. Its extraordinary state of preservation places it among the finest surviving examples of the famous 1923 Black Seal issue.

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