A prominent collector in Quebec notified me today that he received three bricks of polymer $50s with prefix "FMS".  All of his data has been input to the SNDB.

Details of the printing layout, etc, will be released via a future CPMS Journal article.

Also in that article will be details of the new polymer $20s.

I've noticed a lot of the $50s I've gotten recently from ATMs are brand new, CBN notes. There's definitely a different feel, hue and even smell to the CBN ones.  :D

I've gotten a range of FMS, FMT, GHB ones so far.
