Hi guys, don't say welcome back...there's not much time with a 2 & a bit year old.

How is everyone?

How many is everyone buying?
What do you think the collecting point is?
I'm getting $50's as per usual being my main note of choice.
I'm thinking of going:
1 x $5 FP
2 x $5 LP
1 x $10 FP
2 x $10 LP
1 x $50 FP
2 x $50 LP

A lot of people love $20's. Is that the most collectable denomination of polymer notes?
$100's aren't really as collectable.

Would love others opinions.

See, when you ask that question I feel like I should be buying some.
There's going to be a lot printed.
I'll sum up the stats & get back to you, just like the $100's.
Not many people collect the $100's mainly because you can buy a fair bit with a good old greenback ($100).

I'll be getting a first and last of each denomination.

I agree Goatieman, $100 aren't that popular due to the high face value. But my way of looking at it is that in the future this will make them rarer, especially in UNC. I wouldn't be surprised if many of them bought in UNC don't find there way back into the pond at some stage.

Hey Unicorn & the other regulars, such as Mob.
Final figures are:
$5 FP & LP are: 576,499
$10 FP & LP are: 661,999
$20 FP & LP are: 836,999
$50 FP are: 999,999
$50 LP are: 270,513
$100 FP are: 999,999
$100 LP are: 389,499
MOB, you've convinced me to spend an extra $324.06 & get the $20's & $100's.
Darn, I thought I was going to get off pretty scott only spending $286.54.

The notes I ordered arrived yesterday.
In general they are quite wavy which is a trifle disappointing.
No specials such as radars and solids.

I got mine yesterday and I have no issues with waviness.

You mention radars and solids. I've often wondered what they do with first and last prefix solids. They would be worth a fortune. Surely they wouldn't just let them out into circulation
