1935 Bank of Canada $20 English Small Seal – BC-9b Radar Serial Number A074470 | Legacy VF-20

A highly desirable 1935 Bank of Canada $20 English Small Seal banknote featuring the sought-after Radar Serial Number A074470. Professionally graded Legacy Currency Grading Very Fine 20, this early Bank of Canada issue is an excellent collectible, combining one of Canada’s most iconic banknote designs with a scarce radar serial number.

The 1935 issue marked the inaugural series of Bank of Canada notes and remains one of the most popular among collectors. The front features the portrait of Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II), while the reverse depicts the classic allegorical Harvest scene.
