630-18-02a 1935 The Royal Bank of Canada $5 Dobson-Wilson, Check Letter B PCGS Certified VF-30
The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) traces its origins back to 1864 when it was founded as the Merchants Bank of Halifax in Nova Scotia. Initially serving the local fishing and timber industries, it quickly began expanding across the Maritimes, and opened its first international offices in Bermuda and Newfoundland in 1882. In 1901, the bank rebranded as the Royal Bank of Canada, marking the beginning of a period of growth and acquisition. Throughout the early 20th century, RBC pursued a series of strategic mergers that helped it expand across Canada. In 1917, it merged with the Quebec Bank, followed by the Northern Crown Bank in 1918, and the Union Bank of Canada in 1925. By 1921, RBC had reached even the remote Northwest Territories, opening its first branch in Fort Smith, further cementing its nationwide presence. RBC’s growth continued over the decades, and in 2022, it made headlines by acquiring HSBC Canada for $13.5 billion, solidifying its status as one of Canada’s largest and most influential financial institutions.
