News: Registration is free here at the CPMF!

while visiting a friend in vermont, he pulled out a pile of Canadian bank notes and was wondering what they are worth.

they come from a private collection, are all kept in protective plastic sleeves and are in mint uncirculated condition.

Here are a few of their details.

1900 Dominion of Canada $4 SN 056230
1917 the canadian bank of commerce $5 SN A137514
1935 the canadian bank of commerce $20 SN 114483
1937 Bank of Canada $50 SN b/h0334691
1901 canadian bank of commerce $5 SN 371252

should he get excited?

many thanks

Wow, I sure would get excited with an UNC 1900 DOC $4.  If it's truly an uncirculated note, then you are looking at a book value in excess of $10 k.

The BOC 1937 $50 is the more common Gordon signature, book value is $1,200 UNC.

I'm no expert in Commerce notes, but the 1901 and 1917 notes will be quite rare and valuable.  The 1935 is reasonably common, but still would exceed $1,000 book value in Unc condition.

I hope this helps.
