*WA. New to Data Base

Post by CarmieG » Sun Feb 18, 2024 7:29 pm

I’m excited about this one.
Any advice on how or who to sell?
*Note the top cut.

See what the experts say on this one but I would think you should have it certified.

Definitely get it certified and handle carefully. Put it in a protective holder
to prevent any marks or crease's which can devaluate it greatly.
With the front being off centre, it will prevent it from being a top grade but
if you can get it certified uncirculated, it could be a five figure find.

Thank you for the advise. This was part of an inheritance which proceeds will be divided with siblings.
I have a lot of notes to check but this one is the most promising thus far.

Wow!
A rare note indeed.
Definitely do as coinguy suggests, handle it very carefully, do not put it inside a book, and get it certified.
Google BCS grading for certification services.

Hey Carmie,
I am brand new to this discussion group, and am looking forward to meeting lots of people.
I am not sure if we are allowed to discuss buying and selling on this site, so please forgive me if I am breaking any rules.
I am an avid collector of Bank of Canada notes, and have a quest to obtain 1 note from every year, series, signature, and prefix. This is a very large goal, and I have been at it for over a decade, and am barely half way there.
Your *WA $20 note is very hard to find. Is there any chance it is still around, and if so, could it be available for the right price?
Thanks,
Ken Barrett
