We purchased this around 1993/94 - is there any value to this?

Can you post a scan? I have some good resources for valuing Canada banknotes, but I need to know exactly what you have there.

Assuming these are the 1986 "Bird" two dollar sheets, then there should be a prefix and serial number on each note.  Also, check the signatures.

The sheets range in value from approx. $100 to $3,400.

Most of those sheets are in the lower value range from $100 to $300, but there are some exceptions that run much higher.
I could help you with a value if I had all the detals.

The original post was made nearly a month ago, and it's the only post made by the person, so I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the details.  I would love to know how the sheet is missing the serial numbers.  But, of course, so many of the most interesting items discussed on this board don't have pictures!

These sheets were cut into mini shetes of 2 notes (one note above the other). The mini sheets of 2 notes were placed in a souvenir folder and the folder had "SPECIMEN" stamped on it.

Do you have a scan of these...I have never seen them?

It's kind of a shame that the same level of interest in this thread was lacking when the newbie made his original post.  :-[

Thank you for the responses - will post the scan later on today (due to unforeseen circumstances was not around past couple of weeks).

The only explanation for no serial numbers is that in 1986 there were sheets of those notes printed withoutout serial numbers. These sheets were cut into mini shetes of 2 notes (one note above the other). The mini sheets of 2 notes were placed in a souvenir folder and the folder had "SPECIMEN" stamped on it. I have one of those folders with the minisheet of 2 notes inside it and those notes do not have any serial numbers. Maybe the 5x8 sheet that bobsuruncle has is from that printing.

The sheet I have is from around 1995/97 - it is a complete sheet of $2.00 bills uncut without any serial #'s
will get the pic today.......thx

But those are only the fronts.  The serial numbers are on the backs of the notes.
