Post Your Asterisk * Replacements (Pre-1975)

Rainy day here in southern Alberta, so I thought I would do some posting on this thread. Here is my 1967 $1 replacement/3 digit radar note. Picked this up from a fellow collector friend of mine a number of years ago.

Thanks johnnysprawl!


Here's another one. There were 380,000 of these printed.

Thank you walk2dwater! By the way, I appreciate your posts/replies in this forum. I enjoy reading your comments and have learned a lot about Canadian banknotes from you over the past few years. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with the rest of us.

Love $5 replacements :)

Thank you for reminding me about your hobby site. It's been awhile since I've been on it so I took another look at it this morning. Lots of good information on it that I plan on reviewing in the weeks to come and possibly some banknotes to purchase.

The 1954 *V/E $20 had a mere 80,000 issued but more importantly it is unclear how many were actually caught so that note is keynote & missing in most advance collections. That VF25 is a very respectable grade too! It is the kind of note collectors put up for auction. The 1969 *EB $20 is a dark-horse in my books & doesn't get the respect it deserves. Another decent addition.

Here's a couple of my personal favourites:
The 1954 *U/T $10 (with 80,000 issued, much like your *V/E)

The Beattie Towers *A/E $20 (with 16,000) considered the 2nd toughest replacement of the Modified Twenties:

I posted these (& other replacements) on a thread that highlighted some of my collection:

It's been a while since I have added any Bank of Canada notes to my collection! I must confess that I've been quite preoccupied with assembling my World sets these past 10 years. At the end of July, I thought I would showcase some of these sets I've been assembling on my Collector's Corner Spotlight page:
https://sites.google.com/view/notap...cc-spotlight This page also spotlights some of my collecting strategies, opinions about the hype I hear on Social Media, another collector's bargain bin buys & a contest I hosted on the PMF.

This Saturday (08/16/2025), I will add a type set of Bank of Canada notes to the Spotlight sets I am showcasing. Hope you check it out!

Excellent examples!

Thanks jbuck!
