ok, please bear with me. i have been going through a note collection (an inheritance) and i`ve gone through looking up all of these bills, and everything has seemingly come back as pretty common. i want to post these here to more knowledgeable people to see if i have missed anything, any bill in here that is unique in some way i perhaps have missed. there are some spots in here that are sequenced , and i know something people collect those and can buy them at a little premium. aside from those, i`m thinking of simply picking out certain bills i like aesthetically and simply depositing the rest or making a couple attempts to sell them to collectors, overall i would look towards physically getting rid of most if this.
i am also going to be in vancouver in about a month, and will probably stop by a couple places (J&M for example) to see if anything i have is special.. but regardless, here we go. i`ve scanned every bill`s serial number, and i do have them all organized, so if i need to scan anything over, the front, or anything in more detail i`d be happy to. as well, if any of you see anything special in terms of what you guys collect, feel free to pm me or express your interest. i`d love to be able to help other note collectors out no doubt..
anyway, here we go, i will post five scans per page until i`m done :)

Take 'em to the bank. Then buy yourself something nice.

I wonder which signature is on the 1986 $2 ARX note.

Some of the $2 AUJ, AUK, AUL, AUM notes are worth more than face value. Some are worth $50 to $100 each in brand new, uncirculated condition. So, you may want to keep those prefixes.

Curious to know if the $20 EVH has a back plate Number

yes it does, it is #11

The AWC $20 is a change over and may be worth more than face value.

If you are into collecting paper money then I would take the advice that has been offered here (free of charge). You should keep perhaps one note from each denomination (the one in the best condition). Put aside what has been listed here (& possibly the GPW &ANP 1986 $5). Some of these my be worth a little more than face. You should look on the 2001 $10 FED note to see if there is a "missing circle" in the small border panel left of "Banque du Canada" to keep. 1986 "BEF" prefix might be nice to keep too. You also may wish to keep the 1973 2 digit $1.00 prefix FA.
But (otherwise) do yourself a favour and cash in all the high denominations as recommended by mmars.
hope this helps,
;D

thanks to everyone thus far, i've learned a couple neat details already... :)
also, all PMs should have been responded to by now,

You should keep all of the notes that are in "uncirculated" condition, i.e. perfect without any sign of mishandling even the high demonination notes. I would also suggest that you keep most of the "multi-coloured" notes (especially the $50's) unless they are quite worn.
There is a show about once a month at the Oakridge Shopping Centre in Vancouer and J&M ususally has a table as do some other paper money dealers.
The collection is quite interesting. It appears the deceased collected by prefix as well as high value notes. The 1000's are an easy sell as they appear to have been circulated and, accordingly, have no numismatic value.
Another prefix collector would love to have "dibs" on the collection especially at only a small premium to face
and you may want to list the notes on this website.

I would agree with gendis and say to keep the nicest of the Multicolour series, the ARX $2, a few of the Birds, some of the early Journey Series and start by disposing most worn bills first. There are some nice notes in there that would make great fillers for a new paper money collector having trouble finding some of the earlier banknotes.
You may be able to get a premium for the consecutively numbered sets and it would be prudent to study the latest CGPM Catalogue if you want to keep some of the ones that may be worth more in the future.
Only other recommendation is to make sure that the Bank you are dealing with is very acquainted with you and that you can verify the source of the bills if you are planning on depositing most of them, particularly since it's such a large amount. Alarm bells and red flags are sure to pop up, so be prepared to answer some questions if you are planning to make a large purchase..
Good Luck and thanks for posting!

Yes, I concur with Rag Picker.
When you are depositing the larger bills, say the $1,000 notes, etc., and the older $100 notes, the first thing that comes to a teller's mind... "Where the heck did you get these notes?"
Anyhow, if you deposit more than $10,000 in cash at the bank, you are required to disclose where the source of the money on a declaration form which is reported to FINTRAC (a government agency) to check if you are not money laundering, etc.

i've been lucky enough to build a decent relationship with my bank, same bank for 20 years, and lots of the people have been for 10 + in some cases. there were a couple women i dealt with a couple years ago involving a safety deposit box for my grandpa while he was sick. i'm actually quite thankful i do have a relationship with some of them for when i start going there and ask for help with money..
