Wow, I'd pay $50 to have one of those!

Did anyone notice the strange group of letters/numbers that appear on the top of the reverse?

Coll! I like the stripe. Once the $5 bills come out, I will go to RBC and exchange my old bills.

Ya I have a few 100 and 50's as well. Get them at work, unfolded in awsome condition. No radars though but I'm watching them.

Bumping the topic because I'm still wondering about this: Did anyone notice the strange group of letters/numbers that appear on the top of the reverse?

Eh, no. I'm referring to the reverse of the new $50 note. If you've seen it you know what I mean.

Yeah, the dots at the top of the note is braille for the blind.

Oh, I know what you are talking about now. I would guess it is some type of coordinates; just a decorative thing to match the theme on the back of the note.

These new polymer bills are going to hinder bill collectors. With their long life they are going to be around for a very long time. I guess I can just cross my fingers and hope they will switch to a new style in a few years. Realistically once all bills change to polymer we probably wont see a styling change for a decade.

Umm, I disagree with that statement, loonietoon. Just take a look at the Mexican $20 peso bill. It has gone through a few tweaks and changes over the years. Even the $200 peso bill has reverted back to paper for one issue, and there is a commemorative $100 peso polymer bill that came out pretty recently to commemorate the Mexican Revolution. If I know the RCM they will do with polymer what they did to the 25 cents piece and butcher it. I'm betting the new $5 and $10 polymers will suffer this cruel fate.
