Picked these up for a few bucks a piece at a local show today. Never seen the goldish flag on them before. Is it rare? I have 3 and the flag is on the exact same way on all. Any input would help.
Sorry, I'm no expert on paper money. None of the example of this bill that I have show the gold flag though. It's not mentioned here http://www.coinsandcanada.com/bank-...67&id_cat=16 either. Maybe a post-mint modification?
If you bought them in Canada you should report them to the RCMP. I suspect the modification in this way is a fraudulent way to make them seem more valuable.
This note comes up for question for often at the Banknote forum that I am on. These notes are not rare, and are not errors. Someone just started adding these flags to the note, and had been selling them as something they are not.
I dont think I will report them lol...These were not done with a stamp, I'm assuming they went through a printer like the ebay review states. Even though they are a post mint modification, does anyone know when they were released back into circulation?
