Monthly bump.

It will depend on a lot of factors including minimum grade acceptable (which you haven't stated), eye appeal, original (or not), etc. The higher/stricter your requirements could make your pursuit either easy or or more difficult. Since the pandemic, everything has become a bit more dear but a lot of...

Catalogues only single out prefixes that are more collectible/sought after rather than regular prefixes. Here's the scoop on the AUG to AUN $2.00 according to my 2019 Charlton: The Thiessen-Crow signature combination was intended to begin with $2 note AUK1640000. However, notes with the Thiessen-Cro...

Numista is a very useful site where you can also catalogue your collection, swap & participate in a fairly active World coin forum.

I have a fairly small rural library. It’s possible but I will also check eBay. One of the hardest parts of being a collector is I don’t have a lcs :( The nearest LCS to me is over 1 hour drive from where I live. I went 2 years ago to get some large currency sleeves. If I buy the sleeves by bulk, I ...

Here's a thread I started on the Paper Money Forum (it is a US-based banknote forum) on TIPS selling on eBay : https://www.papermoneyforum.com/post/tips-to-sell-on-ebay-or-elsewhere-strategies-etc-12813197?highlight=selling%20ebay&pid=1336730619 Like @HANDI1, I am a bit puzzled why you'd wish to lea...

It's hard to say because you are not framing your question in a specific manner. Do you mean Choice UNC $2.00 compared to Choice UNC $20 from the first or 2nd signature combo? If you are talking about short prefixes (or change-overs), they're a different story (as are replacements). The BV's for the...

Thanks guys!

I was at a workshop on the storage/proper care of coin/banknote collections at the RCNA a few years ago. What was really surprising was that just about all the participants had experienced some damage to their collections & had stored their collections in their basements (or other problem spots). Wh...

Still some more CDN/World doubles available!

Bump

I used to "recycle" cash at a few of my favourite branches but have really backed off in the last couple of years (mainly due to Covid & also due to the high # of new staff in training). Many of the new staff take forever to change up (or down) small amounts (like $2000 or 100X $20.00). It tends to ...
