I have 2 1986 "Bird Series" bills I inherited, and I'm wondering whether or not either is worth anything more than face value.

The 1st is a $2 "Robin" bill as described at http://www.cdnpapermoney.com/English/BoC/1986_2.htm.
I think the signatures are "Thiessen-Crow".
The serial number is EBN6168851.
Condition WOULD BE Fine, except for small front-left border tear and several blue "dot" stains on both front & back .
(These blue "dot" stains are similar to those visible on front upper right corner of bill pictured at http://www.cdnpapermoney.com/English/BoC/1986_2.htm, but located differently).
So, condition is Very Good.

The 2nd is 1 $5 "Kingfisher" bill as described at http://www.cdnpapermoney.com/English/BoC/1986_5.htm.
I think the signatures are "Thiessen-Crow".
The serial number is FNV0707572.
Condition is Fine to Very Fine - The top edge is slightly worn, and corners are somewhat rounded.

Here are the photos I intended to include with my original message, but I failed to read the "Help" and they didn't get included.

Sorry about that.  :-[

Hello
They are both in rough condition and very common notes, they are not keepers.  Spend them.

your notes are worth $7 and a smile...from the person who gets them after you've spent them.  Have fun with them.  I like spending old money when I leave tips at restaurants etc...   :)
