Post Your Canadian Circulation Finds!

Some have been asking the results of the bills and prefixes since it's hard to see on the photo. So, I've finally organized the notes into their currency holders, and examined the prefixes, issue, and value using the Charlton Catalogue.

I have 9 consecutive and 3 (total 12) all in Gem UNC of the $1 H/F Beattie/Rasminsky notes.

Also included was a:
$1 V/F Lawson/Bouey note in AU condition;
$2 L/G $2 Bouey / Rasminsky, Gem UNC condition;
$2 *B/B Beattie/Rasminsky in Gem UNC; and,
$5 V/X Bouey / Rasminsky in Gem UNC.

The others are just general, common, notes mostly in UNC condition.

All the paper notes combined are worth about $500 in value based on the Charlton Catalogue values. So not too bad for a $67 paper money face value, and one 1958 silver dollar worth only bullion value ($17). One of the best finds with $78 with the help of the bank employee.

Nice!!

I've been going through my penny jar and found two wheat pennies (1938 and 1956D)! They're not very pretty but I was still surprised.

I also went looking through $20 in nickel rolls and found a 20-pence... I've seen these in my change previously as well... if I get enough I'm going to convert them to CAD (as of today, 20 pence is worth 30.7 cents Canadian... not bad for a nickel).

Cent is a French word for one hundred. The notes in Canada are bilingual.

Digging around in a cigar box full of my uncles foreign and found these.

















Can someone shed some light on the Rutherford coin?

Hi fellow collectors,

My friendly bank teller told me they just got a large deposit of old bank notes.  Here is the stash.   This is the first time I received a 1937 series bank note.   Just paid face value for the notes from an RBC Branch in Vancouver.



Surprisingly, I noticed there were 39 notes of a 1973 $1 notes, that came from a collectors sheet of $1 bills.  They even had the curve from being in the tube.  Someone cut the sheet of notes to deposit them!   Here is the photo of these $1 bills.
