An extremely interesting piece of early Canadian History featuring the Largest company and oldest company in canadian History. The Hudson Bay Company was exploring and expanding the Canadian North and covered over 3 million square Miles. The notes history in very unique in that it was printed and signed on May 4th 1820 in London and then shipped across to York Factory Canada where it was signed again prior to being issued on June 21st 1821 over a year later. York factory was located in the Hudson bay region and was a main hub for their tradding business and remained operational from 1684 through to 1957. This Banknote is an extremely desirable example, with very little damage from being torn out of its original leger book. PMG Certified AU-55. The note is #531 from the London printing factory, and #31 as issued from York Factory, Ruperts Land. Worth a premium Bid! -Good Luck-
