November 8th:
Some interesting notes repatriated from the UK.
There were a few interesting notes in the hoard that my friend brought back from the UK.
This 1973 $1 has a faintly written note in pencil: “Der(Ger) Man Queen”
The second 1973 $1 has the “pink stamp of death” that is very blurry. I think it says “The Bank of Nova Scotia” and the year 1990. The rest of the date is illegible.
This sun scorched 1971 $10 has been autographed by several people as a good luck note.
“Good Luck Hank”. “Best Wishes” and “Brother” are all I can read.
Finally, this 1979 $20 also has a “pink stamp of death” on it. This one is legible though… It reads:
The Royal Bank of Canada
Cobourg, Ontario
01002 003
And a partial date 85 which I assume is 1985.
A quick search of the transit number reveals that it is
66 King St. West
Cobourg Ontario
K9A 2L9
The funny thing is that I was actually at this branch the last time I visited Cobourg!
Enjoy!
