Today I went to the bank to withdraw some cash to enter to the SNDB and I found this $5 bill. 1 number away from being the 5 millionth note but needless to say I’ll add that to my banknote collection

Thanks Walktothewater for your post!!

I am very pleased to see that this thread is being used as a discussion for a number of interesting topics including the find of the solid number $5 banknote.  This is being a community of like minded collectors and it is really encouraging to see that the search of the banknote is elusive and rewarding.  More importantly, it could restart others to keep the search going.

This banknote will be graded and I will post an image of the graded banknote in nearby future to continue this conversation.

Many thanks to all!  Whitenite

Thanks @Breanna72, @Mike67 & @Whitenite
It's definitely a nice conversation piece although most of my family avoid the topic of banknotes 
The funny thing is it actually stopped my searching for a while (since I got it from change & I wasn't pulling anything worthwhile from my recycling searches of thousands of notes). The note is well circulated so it had met many people's eyes & was used extensively before I caught it by chance.  It taught me a hard lesson: people don't check their notes & that the whole finding a good thing is such a long shot that it can happen anyhow & any way (like through searching or just from change). Use cash & you may just find something. It's crazy really... but that's what I got out of plucking that from my lotto change. 
(sorry Whitenite - didn't mean to hijack your thread)

Your solid serial looks like a great candidate for certification (its in a lot better shape than mine).

Hey TN56,
Very good score!!!!!  The toonie on the left is a 2017 Canada - Dance Of The Spirits - Coloured - Glow In The Dark.  Highly sought after by collectors.  Has a bit of wear, but definitely a keeper.  Let us know if it glows!
Cheers,
B

March 29th finds: 
What a day it was!

Today, I picked up some rolled coins from two different banks. 
The rolls yielded some treasures including:
Several 1992 Provincial quarters, four RCMP quarters, $3.35 in US coins, a 12 sided nickel from 1961, a 1967 rabbit nickel, some foreign coins including a 10 pence coin and two five pence coins from the UK, a 50c coin from Mexico, two 2023 dimes, 33 pure nickel nickels, and, best of all a nice 1965 silver dime!

There was one 1968 dime that looked an awful lot like silver, but it was magnetic.

I then went grocery shopping and I found 45 cents in the Coinstar reject tray.

From there, I went to the ATM to withdraw some cash.  Out comes a $5 radar note! 

Enjoy!

Today I was in Downtown Toronto where I needed to reload money on my TTC Presto Card so I went to a subway station with a presto machine to reload money onto the card and got these 2 colored toonies in my change. I was shocked I found 2 colored coins in a row but here it is

Wow, awesome finds ! Congratulations ! 

@walktothewater

Fantastic find for a Journey $5 banknote, I noticed that the right side serial number has a slightly dropped eight with heavy ink. I am betting that the next sheet or two would have errors or the numbering counter re-centered to avoid rejections or errors.

You should get it graded and keep it for a conversation piece.

Keep searching as you never know what you can find!!!

Best regards, whitenite

WoWzA!!!  Re-energizes one for note hunting for sure!!!  Great finds!!

Congrats @whitenite!
That is a jaw-dropping find.

I actually got this Journey solid 8 $5.00 Journey note from my Lotto ticket change (about 2008-2010 I believe). The irony is that I was recycling FIVES (trying to find an APM $5 short prefix) but landed this AAK8888888 when asking for change (& I got it only b/c I forced the issue of getting a FIVE back). It can happen folks :
