I imagine it would not be uncommon enough to be.a fancy serial number? Edit:wrong description. Also I forgot a picture. I'm mainly curious because it seems as rare likely hood wise as a binary bill but seeing as I can't find mixed laddar bills I assume it's one of those close but no cigar finds Edited by Wrekkdd 10/07/2021 2:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 10/07/2021 3:16 pm Thanks sprawl, I figured as much. Actually come to think of it 8 different numbers is not as rare as binary I don't think. I'll find one at some point lol. Report this Post to the Staff

walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2571 Posts	Posted 10/08/2021 10:43 am I would say its "fancy" if you like it. So are "broken ladders," "near solids" & any "birthday #" note if you like it. The idea of a "fancy" serial number came from "planet ebay." I would hazard to say that a FEW are cool, & may be significant to some (- like an area code 0090500) but not all collectors. It's definitely a niche place within the hobby & something new collectors need to be wary of & that's b/c no real premium unless you're willing to pay one. This is the realm of complete speculation. Don't confuse the notion of "fancy" with "Special Serial Numbers," which are listed at the end of most currency catalogues. There should be no novel adverb (an unlisted adjective like "mixed" or "broken" before the special # term (radar or ladder) unless it qualifies a type (like "2 digit/solid" before "radar"). Special Serials command a premium b/c they're very tough to source (& everyone will agree on this). Special Serial Numbers are: Radars: 1111111 or 1222221; 1234321 (aka: palindrome which reads the same both ways) Ladders: 1234567 or 8765432 Repeaters: 1231231 or 7897897 (repeating pattern/ could have a "repeater radar") Low Serial Numbers:for BoC a number below 1000 Million # notes: 1000000, 2000000, etc to 9000000 Binary Notes* (Zeros & Ones) Rotator Notes (also called SWIMS) these numbers read the same either right side up or upside down & use only digits 0, 6, 8 and 9: 9000006 8860988 0068900 etc (* you can have different types of radars: these include a repeater, ladder & rotator type radar) Hope that clarifies things. 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 Edited by walk2dwater 10/08/2021 10:45 am Report this Post to the Staff
Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 10/08/2021 11:00 am Thanks, definitely clears it up a bit. I sent this guy back into the wild. I currently only have the 2015 Charlton catalog but one I can put a bit of extra cash aside I will be purchasing the 70th addition of Charlton, I heard are very own SPP-Ottawa has info published at the very back. There is no error or variety info in mine. Well vary little. Report this Post to the Staff
