Title: Rare $2 Canadian bill anyone?
Post by: justboss on December 12, 2013, 05:41:27 am

Anyone have any idea what this might be worth?

I know that the AUC serial might be worth more then other ones like BUY...heard that a AUH sold for over 20k at auction.

Any ideas? Thanks

Face Value.
Only $2 notes with prefix AUG-AUN are worth above face value. AUG and AUH notes signed Thiessen-Crow are the ones that sell for $10,000 +
Hope this helps

My son also has a $2 1986 Canadian bill with the signatures Thiessen-Crow however the serial number begins with EGB. Is this also only worth $2? :)

Hi,

I am a newbie. Hope you are all having a great day.

I have come into possession of a stack of 1986 $2 bills, all mint condition from the bank, my dad gave to me....
the serial numbers are all consecutive...cbh2901701-2901800.

Are these worth anything more than the $200?

I also have a number of 1937 $1 bills mint, BCT491835 - 491841.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,
E

Hello
They are very common notes, in the best uncirculated condition a CBH with Theissen Crow signatures are cataloged at $10 each.  A CBH with Bonin Theissen signatures are cataloged at $6 each.  However, due to the many millions of these printed you would be lucky to get much more than face value for them.  The $1 notes you mentioned are not 1937 as 1937 notes only have 2 letters.  I think they are 1973 notes and again very common not worth much more than face value.  Hope this helps.
