CH 345-22-04.  Legacy graded AU53. Another Charlton plate note.  The 1922 issue commemorated the bank’s fiftieth anniversary, and consisted of $5, $10 and $25 notes.  All are quite challenging to acquire and with only five in private hands, the $10s are the toughest of all.  Due to a twist of fate, they also survive in higher grade than the other two 1922 commemorative denominations.  About half a century ago four consecutively numbered, high grade $10s turned up.   Three of the four were offered in the 1976 Canadian Numismatic Association auction.This one, the lowest numbered of the four, was acquired by E. R. Hunter. Bob Graham bought it with the Hunter collection in 1992. The central vignette shares thematic similarities with that of the 1904 $10. An allegorical woman sits between a prairie farmer cutting wheat on the left, and a busy harbour scene with an industrial city in the background - Hamilton, perhaps - on the right. S/N:008010/B. Part of the Bob Graham Collection.
