!974 $2 Huge Consecutive run...any extra value? Thnx

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

Hi

Would a huge consecutive run of say 60 UNC 1974 $2 (only worth $9 in UNC) be worth anything more?

Any premium?

The notes i have are just Lawson Bouey 3 letters

The only reason i ask, is that these runs seem to go for a lot more on ebay than the 1973 $1's in accordance to their face value.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Personally I dont think a consecutive run has anymore value, but some people do seem to pay more...I guess a matter of personal preference...
The more notes the less rare...the less value IMO

Your run of consecutive notes is not the same as a block of stamps. 

I have never seen premiums paid on runs of new (common) notes. In fact, the market will typically offer you less, just like when a book seller (or any other sales person) sells "batches" or a larger number of said product. 

So rather than expect $30 for three- I would expect $15 - $20 for three in a row.  Some people like having consecutive numbers- so they may be a bit easier to sell simply because some people (esp non-collectors) like to show off having a few rather than 1. 

The exception to this rule may be for fancy numbers or rarer varieties (errors), in which case premiums may be reached.
