I've packaged my 3rd set of notes for a US based collector. Still lots of notes available including "150" Commemorative Tens! BCS graded notes also available. Just ask!

I have a few Bank of Canada "extra notes" which I've listed on my site in CDN funds: https://sites.google.com/view/notaphilycculture/list-of-bank-of-canada-available Notes include Replacements, Special numbers in all different grades. Follow the links to the series for images. If there's no image I ...

That's an incredible accomplishment~ Congrats!

I have started a thread which features the majority of my private Bank of Canada collection on the CANADIAN PAPER section of the Coin Community Forum ( CCF ). I started the thread b/c in 2018 the Canadian Paper Money Forum shut down so I registered with the CCF . Over the years, I had posted several...

Over the past 3 years, I've been following a Paper Money Forum (PMF) thread on " UNESCO Natural World Heritage Sites ." It was created by a seasoned collector who goes by CurrencyDen1: https://www.papermoneyforum.com/post/unesco-natural-world-heritage-sites-11781721?pid=1326791167 What a great way t...

I guess if you build enough hype, there's always someone who will fall for it! (Kind of like what happened with the Zimbabwe 100 Trillion note - which perhaps went "viral" like gamestop stock). I've spent the last 5 years trying to convince the Charlton pricing panel to acknowledge the scarce Mackle...

Yeah, the PA prefix is a mystery to me. They had 9,400,000 PA issued but huge premium even though its 600,000 short of a full 10,000,000 run. I can't tell you how many of these I've seen of these go to auction with very little interest. Absolutely never see the huge premium realized either. If anybo...

Honestly, I've submitted notes right from bricks which got an UNC 64 from BCS with no "Original." When I called Steve Bell he said it had a scratch on the polymer substrate. I have to take his word for it. But I also know of a US collector who bought an "Original" 58 Devil's Face $5 that got no PPQ ...

Really scarce! WOW! Great note to own. Very few known. (Notice how serial # ends in 499)? That's real. Congrats!

No, there is no published list that I'm aware of & I don't understand why this is important. Nobody knows what numbers the printers started at & the # of specimens are low (usually below 1000). Keep in mind these notes were not issued to the public & only used for educational purposes (to train bank...

My Charlton has this note at the end of the pricing panel for 1991 $20 (BC-58 )*: Note 6 $20 insert replacements notes come in blocks of 18,000 or multiples of 18,000, starting with the Knight-Dodge signature. However on the pricing table, there is Knight-Thiessen AWE (Below 160,000); AWH (below 100...

Not sure if you are aware of this (or not) but you have incorrectly listed the GOG $5.00 TEST note under the Thiessen-Crow signature combination when it should only be (correctly) listed under the Bonin-Thiessen signature combo. Your link shows the problem & here is a screen capture I took. Last lin...

And this post is a late nod to our US collector friends (for Independence Day): If you would like to learn more about US currency, than first check out this US Currency Education Program site which provides tables & the most clarity you can find on the Federal Reserve Notes (FRN's), Treasury Seals, ...

I was going to post something on Canada Day (07/01) & Independence Day (07/04) for our US neighbour collectors to the south but got caught up in other stuff. For Canada Day I was going to post this $5.00 Journey solid radar. This note I posted elsewhere (CCF World Sub) also to spark any opinions on ...

Canadian banknotes have serial number prefixes . They were single letter in 1935 series (A or B for English & F for French) & in 1937 the prefix system became fractional (A/A). In 1969, the prefixes became 2 letters (side by side) like AA. In 1979, the serial number was re-positioned to the back of ...
