Title: Dominion of Canada 2 Dollars 1914 DC - 22a
Post by: pitarr on January 10, 2013, 11:24:42 pm: Hello,

I just picked this up today. I also tried to buy the new catalogue of canadian paper money but the coin dealer did not have it. Until my online order come could somone tell me please what this note could be worth?

I would say this is G to VG but I am no serious collector I just started 3 months ago so I am still very new at this. The third picture shows the only real big tear, there are no holes in this note that I could find.

Thank you in advance for your help.

It's a whole note with no pieces missing and a few tears on the lower margin, so I'm inclined to say it's a VG.

Post by: walktothewater on January 11, 2013, 05:46:40 pm: I might hazard to say this note could even be (strong VG) VG+ with decent eye appeal because the edge nicks/tears do not extend into the design, the edges and corners are pretty good, and the colour, hues and vibrancy are better than usual for this grade.

Post by: mmars on January 11, 2013, 07:47:19 pm: Well, whatever grade it is, it's now item 230910988613 and can be had for $199.

Did you really order a catalogue? ;D

PMG VF?

Is that a serious guess or just sarcasm?

Post by: pitarr on January 11, 2013, 11:20:12 pm: Most probably not but I can try, there are only a few on ebay currently and I have already 3 watchers so I hope someone will bid on it. I am going with VG+ so if someone buys it for 199 I'll be happy.

What price is after VG can someone please tell me?

Thank You
