1935 Bank of Canada $25 Commemorative Note – Serial Number 8 | BC-11 | PMG VG-10

A remarkable and historically significant 1935 Bank of Canada $25 Commemorative Issue, professionally certified by PMG as Very Good 10. Despite its well-circulated condition and noted edge damage with tape, this note possesses one of the most desirable features a collector could hope for—serial number A000008.

Issued to commemorate the Silver Jubilee (25th Anniversary) of the accession of King George V (1910–1935), the 1935 $25 denomination is unique in Canadian currency history, being the only regularly issued Canadian $25 banknote.

This example is the English text variety (BC-11), signed by J.A.C. Osborne and G.F. Towers, with prefix A, plate position D1.

The exceptionally low single-digit serial number (8) places this note in an elite category. Single-digit serial numbers are highly sought after by advanced collectors and rarely appear on Canada’s classic charter and Bank of Canada issues. Although the note has survived with heavy circulation, its extraordinary serial number gives it tremendous collector appeal.
