A rare and desirable 1954 Bank of Canada $1 Modified Portrait error note featuring a genuine Mismatched Serial Number error. Professionally graded BCS Extra Fine 40 Original, this note is catalogued as BC-37b-E15-i and represents one of the most sought-after serial number errors in Canadian paper money.

This remarkable error occurred during the numbering process, resulting in two different serial numbers being printed on the same note:

  • Left Serial Number: H03272098
  • Right Serial Number: H03372098

Mismatched serial number errors are among the classic Bank of Canada printing errors and are far scarcer than standard notes. Their rarity and visual appeal make them highly prized by collectors of Canadian error notes.

Issued with the Beattie–Rasminsky signatures, the note features the iconic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the face and the Saskatchewan prairie landscape on the reverse. The Original designation confirms the note retains its original paper quality and has not been altered or restored.
