Where & when
What's on the note
Front: Queen Elizabeth II (reigned 1952–2022), depicted in a youthful portrait as she appeared in the 1950s-60s. This commemorative note was issued to mark the 100th anniversary of Canadian Confederation in 1867, with the dates '1867 1967' prominently displayed in red at the top. The centennial symbol, a stylized maple leaf composed of 11 triangles representing all Canadian provinces and territories, appears at left center. This was a special one-year issue replacing the regular 1954 'Devil's Face' and modified portrait series for the centennial year only.
Back: The original Parliament Buildings in Ottawa, specifically depicting the Centre Block and East Block as they appeared before the 1916 fire that destroyed the Centre Block. The inscription reads 'CANADA'S FIRST PARLIAMENT BUILDINGS / LE PREMIER ÉDIFICE PARLEMENTAIRE DU CANADA.' This Victorian Gothic Revival structure, designed by Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones, was completed in 1866 and served as the seat of the new Canadian federal government from Confederation in 1867 until the fire. The current Centre Block with its Peace Tower was rebuilt between 1916 and 1927.

Background & history
🎉 Commemorating Centennial of Canadian Confederation (1867-1967).
The 1967 Centennial Series was a special commemorative issue released exclusively in 1967 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Canadian Confederation. All denominations from $1 to $1000 featured the centennial dates and special reverse designs depicting significant moments or places in Canadian history. The $1 note shows the original Parliament Buildings to honour the birthplace of Canadian federal democracy. These notes were printed by both the British American Bank Note Company and the Canadian Bank Note Company. The series was withdrawn in favor of the 1969-75 'Scenes of Canada' series, and the $1 note was eventually replaced by the 'Loonie' coin in 1987-89. The Centennial $1 is one of the most collected Canadian notes due to its historical significance and attractive design.

How it came to me
Note appears to have minor handling with slight edge wear and possible light center fold, but retains most of its original crispness and color.
