This was first noted by AZ last year (in GPM30 Typos thread) and still remains unrevised:

1. Page 304, BC-60a (first line). The denomination letter should be AJ, not AI.

-Going through the new Charlton Guide (with the new Viola Desmond note on the cover) I have to say that Steven Bell made the most of the suggested revisions to this new book (as new editor).  I really appreciate the new pictures that were added immediately following the Introduction to Grading (xxvii & xxvii). 

One portion of page 375 could be revised in light of our knowledge that insert replacements are no longer being used.  In the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph it reads:
"It is possible that the overrun was produced to replace defective notes,..." which could be changed to:
"It is likely the the overrun was produced to replace..."
- and later under "PREFIXES AND NUMBERING"
Last sentence: "Each series consists of numbers from 0000000-9999999, the zero note being removed and a replacement note substituted."   Omit: :and a replacement note substituted. 
(as this correlates, rather than contradicts information under "REPLACEMENT NOTES" below on page 375 & again on page 377).

This one is fairly significant & to my surprise occurred in last year's (GPM30) edition but we didn't catch it:

P389
on N5 LOW SERIAL NUMBERED NOTES chart
BC-8-N5-ii
The price values for Ser.A and Ser.B have been shifted under the $2 heading
-when they are supposed to be under the $1
(GPM 29 stands as the last issue the BV chart was correctly printed and values were below the $1)

In addition to this error, there is also a typo with the French Text chart immediately below for $2
Sheet #1 shows a value of 1,800 but I believe it should be 18,000 (a zero was dropped)
[GPM30 French Text #1 note was 16,500]

bc-69bA 2013 $5 HCA 7.893 - 7.992 is a typo and should be 7.893 - 7.902M for a 9,000 range

This is not really a typo but an omission.
P350-351 POLYMER "FRONTIERRES" ISSUES OF 2011TO 2013 (CONT.)
CHECKLIST OF PREFIX LETTERS FOR POLYMER ISSUES

Presently only 2 prefixes from BC-73a ($100) EKY & EKZ have an asterisk for:
*Designates high and low serial numbers seen

Several members from this forum (& evidence from the SNDB) indicates that following prefixes should also have the same designation:
BC-69a Macklem-Carney HBG 0000000-3619999*
BC-70a Macklem-Carney FTH 0000000-8364999*
BC-71a Macklem-Carney BSW 0000000-0269999*
BC-72a Macklem-Carney AMK 0000000-0269999*
BC-72a-i Macklem-Carney GHD 0000000-4900999*

"  Presently only 2 prefixes from BC-73a ($100) EKY & EKZ have an asterisk for:

EKY is likely considered a full 0,000,001 to 6,993,767 (which x,xxx,x67 is an odd number to stop sheet printing) based on the SND having the lowest number EKY 0000213 and the 0000700's I found.  The note was only found within the last two years at the bank in UNC-60 condition, which is unusual given that I was finding FKT prefixes at those times.
