BSW

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

Just wondering what a 2012 BSW Macklem & Carney in VF would be worth?

2012 BSW Macklem & Carney in VF = $50.00, EF = $75.00

- thanks 'slackjack'

2012 BSW Macklem & Carney in VF = $50.00, EF = $75.00

So it's gone up $10 in 2 years even though nobody can find them? I have searched tens of thousands of circulated Frontier Twenties from banks all over the GTA. It took me 4 years to find ONE very beat up example. Only small ranges have been reported from the 240,000 which we have threads about here on CPMF. I'm fairly certain that no collector I know would have given me their BSW for $30-$40 & I would love to buy a VF one now for $50! Please PM me "Archey80" if you're interested. 

The BSW $20 is so much scarcer then the Charlton pricing panel will acknowledge. They've always acknowledged that the BSW was 'short.'  But they haven't yet acknowledged that it is SCARCE (LIKE THE $10 Macklem-Carney FTH!)  (which makes even less sense)

I am on the pricing panel, two things to keep in mind, first we have to wait long enough to make sure that we do not have another 5 HBG problem. And second we need transactions to fix a price and to my knowledge I did not see any
public transaction on a BSW.

- thanks for the reply 'regent.'

what is the problem with hbg?

 The HBG Macklem Carney was issued in May 2014. In August 2014 a few notes went into circulation and for many months we did not found any HBG notes. the price went  to the roof, the price was up to 500$ a piece.
everybody  tought that it was a short run. the price was  high for many months . 6 months later  the price went down to 15$ ,after finding a lot of bundles in the back of some bank of canada storage facilities

I recently purchased a BSW and am awaiting delivery, curious to thoughts on value 3 years later with only 19 on the registry.

Hi,I think for this note a 100$ bill will be ok. the real value will be probably around $500 for a gem note.

I am not sure there is a gem note on the market

I would gladly pay your estimated prices for BSW notes

the problem, we do not have any public transactions or any auction transactions than it is very difficult to have a fair market value. just for information I paid 100$ for my VF note.

Thanks for the info! It would be interesting to see one sell at auction.
