it aster to distinguish a genuine note from an attempt at forgery other changes include the placing of the portrait of queen elizabeth at the right hand side of the note in this position the engraving of the portrait will not be subect to the wear from the constant folding of notes through the center the allegoncal figures which appear on the back panel of the present issue are now re placed by engravings from photographs of various typei of canadian countryside the notes are printed by new processes which give them a distinctive feel the colours of the various denominations are approximately the tame as at present but close examination wtll show that the colour on the face of each note results from the combination of two colours printed one over the other these and other changes have been made to improve the appearance of canadas currency to lessen the risk of counterfeiting and to reduce the cost of production many people ask is there not tome special meant of distinguishing genuine bank notes from counterfeits the answer is that there are a great many means ilngly and in com bination to many that a full description could be confusing and would only help
