:roll: I have been reading and checking and reading and checking like a million times. Is there someone who can help me figure out how much my Canadian Bill's are worth, where do I sell them to get what their worth or at least around what their worth, and what do I do to have everything done the right way? Like do I have to register my bills or something cause I saw something about that too! :lol:

Welcome to the forum-
Sorry to say you have nothing there worth much more than face value due to the condition of the bills.
Collectors of modern currency want them between uncirculated to gem condition.
I would suggest just taking them to the bank and getting your $26.00. You would have a hard time trying
to sell them for much more than that.

I don't understand cause these bills are in wicked condition, aside from the 5's cause it was hole punched when I got them but their flat, not faded alot, and have no rips or anything on them.

I think they all have a little damage making them worth less

for a bill collector, any fold, even where a corner was once turned over makes them quickly loose any value at all .. unless they are scarce to start with.

I have to agree with most comments that there isn't a lot of value in these bills , but please don't just take them to the bank as that will only result in them being destroyed. I true collector is probably looking for bills of that age in better condition, but a bill like those can be great starter for a young collector .
if you can find a coin club in your area they might direct you to a way of getting them into the hands of a interested young new collector. you might get a few more dollars then face value but don't expect to make much.

I agree with GBELEC. I give bills like this to the paperboys/girls for Xmas or during their normal collection days. I also get 250 nickel dollars every year to give to the cart girls or waitresses at the golf course or our Monday morning breakfast place with friends. I donate small bags of older foreign stuff (pre-60's) to my local coin club for the kid's auctions at major shows.
