CBC $5 1917 seal-color varieties

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

Dear  Fellow  Collectors:   My  antique  catalogue  states  that  the  Canadian  Bank of  Commerce  1917  $5's  were  issued  in  two  varieties:  "Green  and  red  seal"  and  "multicolored  seal."   Is  this indeed  correct??   Can  anyone  provide  me  with scans  of  the  two obverse  varieties??    
                Incidentally,  does  anyone  know  where  I  could  get  a  nice  scan  of  the  1866  Province  of  Canada  $10  note??   I  understand that  Jack  Veffer  had  one.

Have you found all the images you were looking for?

Dear Kid:

My antique (1980)  catalog states  that  the  CBC 1917 $5's come in two varieties,  either  white (untinted) face with "tint consists of seal only,"   or  "overall face tints with seal."   I have the latter variety, the green-tinted face, for sure.  But of the white, untinted face variety, I have only a note with a very light seal which appears to me to be red and green only, not multi.  So I guess what I still need is an image of the "15-04A0-1a,"  the whiteface variety with the multicolored seal.   Do yopu happen to know where I can get such an image???    THANK YOU for noticing my query and for replying.

I can send you a scan but you will need to PM me with your email address.  The file is 15x larger than this site permits.
The numbering from the 1980 catalogue was abandoned long ago.  A new numbering system was implemented with the second edition and continued since.

Dear Bob:      Thank you for the information and the offer of image.  My E-mail  address is:

That was interesting that all the catalog numbers are now differerent.  My old Charlton listed quite a few of the Caribbean notes as Specimens (only),  but it is my impression that circulated copies
of several of these  8-) 8-) 8-)notes have since turned up.  
                 Is there anything I can do for you??                             Bernard Schaaf

Dear Benard

I have found a scan of each type from the white background veriety. I will post them as soon as I get home. In the mean time I would like to see any other images you have received for these 2 notes.
