cdngmt Valued Member Canada 402 Posts	Posted 11/22/2020 11:43 pm I was sorting down my $2 notes in view of their becoming non tender and came up with this one... Can I get opinions on grade and Value ? If I researched right AUH is a rare prefix but I often confuse what I would like to what is.... Report this Post to the Staff

norantyki Valued Member 404 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 02:13 am It is a slightly better series, but only really worth FV until basically UNC with Crow-Bouey signature combination. The AUH notes with Thiessen-Crow signature combination are rare, and would be a completely different story in terms of value. Edited by norantyki 11/23/2020 02:14 am Report this Post to the Staff

walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2571 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 5:24 pm You have to be careful with websites like coinsandcanada. They're a good starting point but they often don't expand on why a note is _____ whereas the Charlton Catalogue can give you the real "dirt" on why X note has Y Book Value (BV). BV for C-B AUH: according to Charlton is VG- $2; F-$3 ; VF-$5 ; EF-$8 ; AU-$15 & UNC-$30. Birds $2 are just so plentiful that they're kind of like the 1973 Ones- just don't get the respect that might be suggested by books/or sites, so I would be quite surprised if the BV was a high as that site claims. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUc8Kx5wCI4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LeYOYtSAoc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq1DlqkPHhE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PsCjxldIao Report this Post to the Staff
norantyki Valued Member 404 Posts	Posted 11/24/2020 02:41 am @cdngmt, as per above, they have generalized themselves into a mistake, and birds $2 rarely go for anything near BV. Charleton makes a very clear distinction between the two signature combinations and rarity / value. Dont believe everything you see online ;) Report this Post to the Staff
Bond632 Valued Member Canada 98 Posts	Posted 12/28/2020 05:11 am Coins and Canada has the correct information and always has, I think you didn't notice under Crow-Bouey, it says Prefixes AUG to AUN, which would include AUH. MS60-$67.50 MS67-$100 Report this Post to the Staff
