Considering that it is foreign currency to you, ask yourself this, How often do I find this? Probably not very often. If I found consecutive crisp Canadian dollars, I think I'd pull them, just because of the fact that it is a foreign currency.

not sure. I found a stack of 20 $1 bills at my work that were crisp and not folded yet and consecutive. I left them.

Just plain consecutive notes are worth very little to no premium. I still collect them, though. The choice is up to you.

If you like consecutives, check with your bankers. Many banks get fresh consecutives in every year.

consecutive bills from 70 years ago don't sell for enough to warranty holding onto them. If your looking for the "cool" factor yes keep them. If your looking to have those bills and later turn them over to your children so they can profit from them. I would pass

I'm surprised: in The Land Down Under, consecutive pairs attract a significant premium;
consecutive triples & larger groups get even more.
So, there may be a trend, and you can get ahead of the game, and at low cost.

I don't collect consecutive numbered bills but somehow I seem to end up with them. Here's some 1934 series $ 100.00's, had a few stacks of them still in the bank wrapper, sold and traded some off but still have a bunch, have a lot of consecutive 1995-FW $ 2.00 bills also, I just spend them as no one seems to want them.

They all seem to have a slightly turned suffix.

I like the 100's and it is good you are using them for trades. Spend the 1995 $2's as long there are no fancy SN's. They printed the 1995 and 2003 (Not 2003A) $2's like it was going out of style.  |

Absolutely awesome C-notes Bill..... I just love that sorta stuff.... to me, the consecutive numbering is what makes them special.... if broken up or grouped with other non-consecutive notes, the appeal would be lost..... keep them together Bill....  |

I am not a note collector per-say but I do keep some things I find from circulation. Even though consecutive notes may not be worth anything right now I always seem to put them up if I get them in change. I guess just the thought they started life together and they have circulated and then came into my hands together so I keep them together in my collection. its common to find them when strap searching but just from change it doesn't happen allot, but still nothing I would call a rare occurrence, just a cool occurrence (to me anyway)

Hi Nickelman,
I never checked them that close but yes, now that I look at them they do have a slightly turned suffix, I just checked the others and it never gets any worse. I'm not into fancy numbers, errors, or consecutive notes, just been building a collection of the different types of currency such as SC's, GC's, USN's, FRN's, etc. in both large and small size.
ikandiggit,
Yes it's a pretty picture but it has to be broken up sooner or later, I cant keep them all.
Zee,
Thanks for your nice comments, yes I understand about them being keep together but like I said to ikandiggit, I cant keep all of them so they will some day get broken up, I'm not into selling stuff like this and I cant sell here anyway but I have traded off some of them for notes I need on my want list, don't get me wrong, I didn't trade them here as I cant do that either, done it at some of the shows I get to.

I've done the same thing with notes and coins that I had multiples of. It would be nice to sock them away but if you can get something you really want for items you wouldn't really miss, then why not? |
