This is one of my favourite historical banknotes. This is the first Canadian banknote to honour women specifically who aren't royalty or wives of government officials. The front of this exceptional Superb Gem Unc.67 EPQ note a portrait of Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King in front of the clock tower spire from the Canadian Capital in Ottawa of the Parliament. The reverse honours the Famous Five Women in a sculpture located on Parliament Hill. On the Government of Canada website they describe the sculpture thusly, "Created in 2000, this monument is a tribute the Famous Five: Irene Parlby, Louise McKinney, Nellie McClung, Emily Murphy and Henrietta Muir Edwards, all from Alberta.
The Famous Five brought a case before the highest court in the British Empire to appeal a 1928 decision by the Supreme Court of Canada. That court had ruled that women could not be appointed to the Senate, because they were not "qualified persons." On October 18, 1929, the Privy Council reversed this decision. This sculpture was also featured on the back of the $50 bill."

I am lucky to have a consecutive pair of this wonderful historical $50 banknote highlighting the famous five Canadian women who fought for women’s rights. This Jenkins Dodge note starts with the serial number FMG and is in Jim uncirculated 66 exceptional pay for quality. A wonderful bank note for any collection and I am trying to get consecutive pairs in many of my notes. The front of the bank note has William Lyon Mackenzie King the Prime Minister of Canada during World War II and the clock tower of parliament hill in Ottawa.

William Lyon MacKenzie King and the Parliament Clock Tower frank the front of this Gem Unc. 66EPQ note. The reverse of this note honours the famous five women statue and women pioneers of the Canadian suffragette movement. These ladies made votes for all possible.
