Description

This auction is for a Dominion of Canada (Payable at Montreal) 1.7.1870 One Dollar banknote (P-12a). This item is very heavily circulated (graded by the dealer I purchased it from as a VG-F but looks lower grade than that) and has the following: very heavy folding and wear (also has many heavier creases and many areas of wrinkled folding); overall staining and darker areas of spot/line/section stains (also has smudges, many dark and dirty areas, many grease stains, many areas of discoloration, perhaps some foreign substance); very heavy edge and corner wear (including corners rounded and/or split/frayed/missing - edges rough/perhaps damaged in many areas and oddly cut); very heavy surface wear and fraying (areas of paper loss exist); many edge indents/nicks (many tears may exist and some are larger); if any holes exist they are small; many small pieces missing due to very heavy wear. Please see the photos to judge the condition of the note.
