Re: 1954 $50

IMO it’s I nice looking note for a novice collector like me. A picture of the reverse side would help to determine its worth. I don’t see any folds but evidence of handling and wear. Its worth more then face value but I don’t think you can double that. I don’t know the story behind you receiving it ...

Re: 1954 $50 Canada Banknote

I would say start a new post. Put up a good clear picture of front and back of the note .
It has to be in extremely good condition to be worth very much or to be worth grading.
Some of the experts here may be able to help you out. Good luck.

Reproducion Bank notes

I have seen several Bank notes on Auction sales That are advertised as Reproductions. They look very real and im wondering if anyone can tell me How this is allowed.
How can they not be considered counterfeit???

Re: 1966 Silver Dollar Small or Large Bead

I think for it to be a small bead there should be enough room between beads to insert another bead, looks like a large bead to me.

Re: 2002 dot H value

Yes I believe it’s a die chip but it’s listed as a variety on this wed site at least. And appears to have a good premium in value if it was in better shape.
Sorry about the poor picture but I’m hoping I can improve things with practice.

Re: 5$ gold coin is it real

I knew I would get a answer here, thanks guys
Truly a shame that it’s damaged that bad. Looks like there were only a few minted of that year.
And thanks lightw4re for getting the picture up for everyone.

5$ gold coin is it real

Iv notice an auction site with a Canadian $5 gold coin dated 1911. This website only shows a 1912-13-14
The obverse and reverse on the 1911 look the same as the 12-13-14
Is this coin real???
Or is it real and it’s just not a coin showing on this website??

Re: $2 Devil Face Notes

My first go to for finding value of coins or paper currency is as Nota_phil pointed out , is this website but you have to go beyond that, eBay is good if you check both what is being asked along with what has been sold in the past. As well there are always auction company’s with on line coin and cur...
