Those who have been trying multiple bank machines and had no luck finding the new 20's aren't lucky at all. The other day i withdrew a small amount of money for the first time in a long time (because usually i don't use cash) i wanted the journey 20's because a lot of vending machines and parking meters are still not programmed for the new 20's... anyway it gave me only the new polymer 20's.

If you're looking for Journey $20's, try a TD Bank machine in Montreal.  That's all they're giving out.

Local Scotiabank machine has crisp AUJ journeys.
Found some BIF, BIG and BIJ today.

A TD branch in Brossard gave me almost exclusively well-used Journey $20s.  I didn't try the ATM.

Check out this demo version of an online currency catalog: http://demo.icpress.ru/M_ENG/index.htm.

Thank you for the link. It provides some good details.

Wonder what paper money would say if it could talk?

Hi everyone,

I went to the ATM at my local branch and I got this range of notes: BIN5320940 to BIN5320950. However, BIN5320947 is missing.

Any clue ?

Thanks.

I've got missing numbered notes in my sequences both times I withdrew 20's from ATM so I assume its quite frequent & insignificant.

New $20s seem to have suddenly dried up outside of downtown Toronto.

Some 50 ATMs I've used in the last few days only had old 20s.

Yes - it seems no polymer lately- so now's your chance to get some paper...

Hi,

I got a UNC 20$ today from the bank and there's a small error on it. In the window, where there's the queen face, I see a "scratch"... where no hologram is (it's only plastic transparent). You can see an example here, but my error is in the hologram.

Is that something commun as we currently know ?

Lately I've been pulling $50's from my local bank... and I too noticed this "flake" it's like there's no "paper' between the plastic.. the edge is still crisp and straight yet there is definitely an edge to the note that is missing.

I was excited to see it, thinking it may be an error, but I feel it may end up being too common in production to warrant any great value to the note.
