The 1935 $500 is black with brown tint. It shows
Sir John A. Macdonald
on the face
and a Fertility allegory on the back.
This is the rarest of all Bank of Canada
bills. No "Almost Uncirculated" (AU)
or "Uncirculated" (UNC) bills are known to exist outside the Bank of
Canada
Museum. Currently there are only 46 bills unaccounted
for. Even a note in pretty
beat up condition (G) would sell for upwards of C$6,000. At Extra Fine (EF)
you could expect almost $30,000 CDN.
If you find one, don't tell me! I can't afford it.
