Nice FFB 5335335 2 digit radar. The 3 digit FFF8002008 is also a cool # too (nice to catch a radar on one of those pure 3 letter prefixes we don't see often Enyaw)

So, does something like this bring a premium in Canada?

I have never found a "SWIMS" type rotator in the wild. Found the radar-rotator 8888888 once but never a SWIMS. They're very tough to find @Enyaw. Odds are higher, you'll find a radar. Not sure the collecting community gets that but they are that uncommon: Congrats!

@walk2dwater great find on that solid number radar, I have never found one of those yet.

I went through the bundle of $5's I got when I picked up those Devil Face notes etc. today and I finally found the high INS change-over note in it.

I think I better go buy a lotto ticket!!

Do notes like these carry any sort of premium?

Enyaw, my solid 8 Journey $5.00 came from Lotto change at a Shoppers Drug Mart. Blew me away (mostly b/c I was searching thousands of FIVES & TENS & the best I did was a 2 digit radar).

Another incredible find was this $5.00 about 8 years after the solid 8 radar. I asked my wife if she could spare me a $5.00 (once again at a Shoppers to mail something) and this is the $5.00 she gave me:

It is the only thousand note I have ever come across. These also don't sell like your typical 2-digit radar. The best price I've seen is about double the 2-digit radar premiums seen on Charlton's tables.

I also noticed your CDD "150" commemorative radar. Nice score! I happened to search thousands of these & the serial numbers jumped all over the place so it was super tough to snag a radar (or repeater). Anyway, persistence finally paid off & I was able to catch these two:
