Here are some more information for Coin Bank:
Two years after the 1935 Canadian Bank Note Series, the Bank of Canada printed its second series of bank notes. These notes were required to be produced as bilingual (English and French) because of altered Canadian government legislation. This series had the English writing on the left of the bills and the French writing on the right side of the bills.
Since King George V died on January 20, 1936 and Edward VIII resigned, most of the 1937 Canadian Bank Notes had the portrait of King George VI on the front of them. The only two bills that didn't have King George VI on them were the 1937 $100 Bank Note, which had Sir John A. Macdonald on its obverse, and the 1937 $1000 Canadian Note, which had Sir Wilfird Laurier's portrait on its front.
The other changes to some of the bank notes are as followed:
The 1937 $2 Bill was now reddish brown color instead of blue and the reverse of the note had a picture of a harvest parable changed from the scene of transportation allegory on the 1935 bill.
The color of the 1937 $5 Note was changed from orange to blue.
The harvest allegory on the back of the 1935 $10 Note was changed to pictures symbolizing transportation on the reverse of the 1937 $10 Bill.
The meaningful images of agriculture were changed to pictures of fertility on the 1937 $20 Bank Note. The color of the bill was changed from rose red to olive green.
The only thing that was changed about the 1937 $50 Canadian Note was its color from brown to orange.
The 1937 $100 Canadian Note was made a lighter color of brown.
The 1937 $1000 Bill became a rose red color from its former dark green.

Coins are used for day to day circulation in daily life. Lower denomination are in form of coins where as higher denominations are issued in form of bank notes .
The gross value of the metal used in coins is much lower than the face value of the coin.
Exception to the currency coins are the Bullion coins ,coins made out of precious metal like gold silver and platinum. These coins are not used for currency, gold coins and silver coins as currency was ceased in 1933 when the gross value of the coin became higher than the face value.
Gold and Silver coins are not produced only as souvenirs or as collectors item or for investors.
Gold and Silver coins being very valuable are mainly produced for coin collectors ,or for investors who purchase these coins to safe guard their savings. These valuable coins are a good way of liquidating your investments ,in the United States financial planners are known to advice their clients to put at least 40 % of their savings in purchasing these Gold and Silver Bullion coins.

South Africa is known to mint the not so popular in demand the Krugerrand.
The face value of the U.S Eagle is 10$ ,though In this case the face value makes no difference as the gross value of the coin is much more ,the coin in this case is valued as per the prevailing market price of Gold metal. The Canadian Maple Gold leaf also has a nominal face value.
A great number of metals are used for the production of coins ,metals and alloys of all kinds are used for minting coins , earlier valuable metals like gold silver and platinum were used which then became collectors item or Bullion coins ,for currency the use of copper came into practice this too at some point when the metal value of copper increased had to be ceased after copper Nickel was very popular for small coins of cent and quarter .Nowadays steel is used practically for all the coins ,though plating and coloring of different kinds are given to create differentiation among the coins.
