I am finding 5 in 100 notes from circulation that are either FMS, FMT, FMU and FMV. I have had no luck finding FMU and FMV in anything but circulated mixed with regular

they aren't hard to come by. I've seen all 4 prefixes here in Montreal.

Seen in the numicanada forum from a poster who claims to have received this info from the Bank of Canada:


FWS 0000000 a 9998999 totals 9 999 000
FWT 0000000 a 9998999 totals 9 999 000
FWU 0000000 a 9998999 totals 9 999 000
FWV 0000000 a 9998999 totals 9 999 000
FWW 0000000 a 3473999 totals 3 474 000
