News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

What makes the graph seem dated?

my latest brick of 1000 $5's contained 56 M-C covering all existing series (HAE-HAK) but no HAL. Most were VF-EF, no AU or UNC

HAK0004889 52 19 was a record low and HAE9997490 25 46 was a record high. 

Nice find on the HAE!

Lovely brick "bricker" (esp the HAE)

Can you tell us if you are from the Montreal or Vancouver area?  I cannot imagine finding a brick with so many M/C 2011 fives.

At the time (12/14) quite a few HAE were reported but the #'s on the bar graph did not reflect the additional notes reported in the SNDB.  However, now (12/30) the bar graph is showing five (5) 2011 HAE in the past 2 months so it seems up to date now.

These notes are starting to become common. The last 3 $5 notes in 3 different places were HAF, HAG and HAJ. They weren't in great shape and will be spent.

-yes, especially in Quebec as proven by "Bricker" & others who are finding many.    A Quebec based ebayer has a brick (10 bundles) for sale.  In light of their regular appearance his "Buy it Now" price/bundle is wishful thinking.

They're even starting to appear here in Ontario.  I got 2 the other day.  I believe the HAF, HAG & HAK to be the most common.  HAJ & HAL appear less common (& HAE esp tough to find) but even this may change in the next little while.

Montreal

A brick I checked a few days ago had "only" 24 M-C's: 1-HAE, 5-HAF, 14-HAG, 4-HAK. Still no HAL. These M-C's have been circulating for some time; I havent found anything better than EF so I dont think the BOC has released a hoard.

Found 3 M-C's in only 62 $5 bills I picked up today: 1-HAF, 1-HAJ, 1-HAK, all VF and none worth keeping. Incredibly, in the same 62 bills I found one replacement note HPG9847765 J-C, a new high note HBG9980882 M-P  AND a new low note HBK0701573 M-P!    :-D

These notes were all found in the Montreal area. Maybe i should hang onto the HAJ for awhile?

  I'm in the Montreal area and the only M/C prefixes I have found are HAF, HAG and HAK which seem to be the most common ones at the moment.  I would definitely keep the HAJ for now and see what happens in the future.

The brick on Ebay is HAG with a portion of HAF prefixes. There are other sellers who've been listing M/C $5 notes one at a time since Sept/October.

I believe HAH, HAJ, HAL & of course HAE will be less common but of course I could be totally off on this prediction.

Actually, I would hold onto all M/C notes VF and higher since I believe there are many areas of Canada where they have not been released & could thus be scarce/hard to come by.

I think the next Charlton catalogue will determine the fate of circulated grade M-C notes.  Right now, there is not a significant difference in values between circulated and Uncirculated notes as evidenced by online sales over the past few months.  I have seen circulated notes go for $40 and more, and I have seen Uncirculated notes go for $20 and less.  The catalogue will very likely assess the value of Unc notes and scale the value of circulated grades, so I would expect the collectability of circulated grades to dwindle with time once collectors have hard documentation in hand telling them that circulated M-C notes should be worth a lot less than Unc notes.

Between February 5th and 12th, no Macklem-Carney $5 notes were entered into the SNDB.  This may be an indication that Journey series notes are getting harder to obtain.

Well I havent been active lately and decided to give my RBC tellers a break for a while but today I picked up a bundle of fives and got FIVE M-C's:

  Nice to see you posting again bricker! 

  And wow your luck with getting HAE seems to still be strong!

  It's been a while since I last received any M/C 5$ and the last one was in terrible shape too.  I really hope they haven't disappeared again... 

tks paperorplastic.

I still dont have a M-C HAL, which would complete my HAE-HAL set.

In the SNDB there are 60 HAL's vs only 15 HAE's however I'd gladly trade TWO HAE's for ONE HAL in good shape!!!!   

I have traders in all of them...in VF or better except my HAH which is maybe a Fine-12:
