Hi, I am new to the site and was looking into insight what this bill is that I received when I got change from shopping. It's pretty neat looking and never seen this before.  The rest of the bill looks in amazing shape, but wanted to show the serial numbers and what it looks like. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

 Nice find - hang on to that, according to my 26th edition of Canadian Gov't Paper Money that bill is worth in the neighborhood of $1000 for a double serial number  Just remembered brought in my new copy tonight to do some work - in the 29th edition it's listed at $1100

Definitely worth getting certified to make sure it's real. You make up the cost of grading and much more when you sell it.

It seems the previous sheet was not ejected from the serial number printing press.

That's a neat one there for sure! I like how far off the numbers are as well...

Needs certification, could be a created error, but if good you are in the money.

Be sure to hang on to some good scans that could be included in the 30th edition. Not sure who they would be sent to.
Might want to post it on the CPMF forums as well to see what kind of response you get.
Somewhat difficult to make out but is that 1691294 & 1701009?
Oh, and welcome to the Family!

It's evident that the sheet that produced this bill was put through the numbering press twice. It's possible that this was a setup sheet that somehow managed to make it's way into circulation. If this is the case, there would be more of them out there as they were run I believe 40 up on a sheet.

Thanks guys, yeah I have a few pics I can upload if you need to see more. Yeah I work at a PayDay Loan store so this bill came in a bank bundle from our Bank, and I usually look for unusual bills when I seen this one. I even found a $20.00 Polymer the next day serial numbered to BSE0000003 that I bought for face value. The one perk I get working at this place is the opportunity to find rare bills.

I don't know how serial numbers are done for bills in any country, so explain this please. It looks like 1691009 over 1701294. That's a difference of 10285. Surely there weren't ~10000 bills printed in between rerunning this sheet?
