GW Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 1 In the mid-1990s, the Bank issued 100,000 experimental $5 notes of the then-current Birds of Canada series printed on a substrate consisting of a polymer core with paper on each side to assess their durability. The supplier could not produce the material on a sufficient scale, however, and the Bank discontinued the project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
