Title: The Demise of the $500 Note
Post by: AJG on October 13, 2021, 07:26:05 pm

Does anybody have any idea why the $500 note was retired around 1938?

Also, I would like to ask, was there a press release or news article announcing the retirement of the $500 note?

All I could find was this article on page 2 of the Nov 20 1936 Globe & Mail
