I am envious..... local banks here say they are under strict instructions all old bills must be returned to BoC and cannot be sold to ( given out) clients....

 incredible finds (again!) -especially the four 1937 $1.00 and the radar $2.00 (that's a really tough one to snag) Congrats! |

Received a call from the same bank this week so I just picked up another little score. Not sure if it is someone doing spring cleaning, but I'm not complaining!!    |

Hi @mfhorn, Quote:

Therefore, all of the previous banknotes that were made of paper are being collected at banks and sent back for disposal. |

@Enyaw;
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I knew Canada had switched to Polymer, but until recently I didn't know they were taking the paper from circulation. I have been putting a type collection of the more recent ones together (from the '70's), and am finding this out. I had already acquired the '37 and '54 series several years ago. Would you happen to know of some dealers, either in Canada, or here in the States that have a decent inventory of Canadian notes?
Thanks Again!
