I seek any/all info about 'Heritage Collectibles' (i) framed currency -
coins and banknotes.

Examples (lo-res) of their framed banknotes appear below.

Collecting these HC framed Canadian currency sets since 2001, I have
much info (and pics) to offer in return.  I have (internet) searched for
info about HC ... desperately need people 'down East' to help trace the
founders of HC (Don Mills, Not).

Btw, the $2 framed banknote set includes a 'RS' test note (squint).

See http://www.cdnpapermoney.com/forum/index.php?topic=11315.0 for a brief summary on how framed notes can be a problem for most collectors (in how the notes are framed).  Typically the outfacing sheet (or note) fades with exposure to sun light, etc, resulting damaged/pressed notes/sheets.  I'm sure there may be a few collectors who could be interested in the coin sets but generally speaking many of the long term paper money collectors have shown less interest in framed sold sets (even: $5.00 and $10.00 Journey matching serial number sets with the Birds), framed or not framed have not appreciated much in value/interest.   

However, unframed matching low # serial number sets (of older series) are a different story.

(I will try again to add pics ...)

Good points.  The Heritage Collectible framed banknotes are held by 4
'tabs' (raised slits in the background matt) and are easily removed with
no damage to the bills.  Sadly, the framed coin sets are a different story.

Does anyone know about the Company that seems to have existed between
1985 and 1994?

A person who knows I collect Heritage Collectibles frames has offered to sell me an original ad insert/order form that Sears sent out as an "Exclusive offer to Sears Carholders" for the last of the... Canadian One and Two Dollar Banknotes Collection. I have no idea if this is worth collecting nor what it's worth? Your thoughts/opinions would be greatly appreciative.
