I thought it would be interesting to have a place where Canadian Banknote collectors can post pictures of error notes that they find or purchase.
I know there are a lot of different errors out there so no matter how small or big the error is... please share :)

First off I apologize for the poor pictures my camera is in for repairs.
Here's a consecutive pair of notes with offset printing and by looking at ebay these are certainly not plentiful and carry a nice premium.

What percentage of offset would these two be considered?

I also have another consecutive pair serial #BCZ7860616 & 617 they're in better condition but very similar just a little darker in the offset. I'll wait for my camera to come back and post some better pictures for them.

Cheers, Bill

Although there is a small percentage of offsets, it's not too desirable, generally only 100% offsets carry insane prices

I have to agree
Personally I do not see any real value in the note
Unless there is something I am not seeing

Nice eye candy! Most of mine are locked up in the SDB but I have a few lying around.

My favorite I own is a $20 note with the serial # mirrored on the front. It is featured as the type example in the Charlton catalog.

I'm mostly a coin collector, but recently am getting into bills as well. is there any value in misaligned serial numbers from one side to the other?

In my opinion the answer would be no
However if a digit or more would be higher/lower than the rest
And partially missing that would have value
I see a lot of notes on ebay with a digit a bit higher
But I personally don't see the value in it
But some may find that unique
But I have literally had bricks where hundreds of notes
Are slightly misaligned so in this
Situation I never see any extra added value
