This is a neat group:
The middle one is not only missing the serial numbers, but
it"s a fold-over error. The last 2 digits of the serial number are one the back.
When you fold it over, the "89" falls into the proper place.

All 3 notes are uncirculated, except for the obvious fold on the error only.

Any ideas what this would be worth retail?

That's wild.  Not your average error.  This would get some collectors drooling.  Unfortunately, I'm too poor to drool.

Very interesting and not something you often see! How much is this worth??? Really good question! I would say at least $500.

The error note appears to have embossing of the serial number, clearly visible from the back.  Can you actually read the embossing, and if so, does it give the correct serial number?

yes, it's the correct last 2 digits, 89. with 88 and 90 being the shoulder notes.
What also is neat is the when folded over, the "89" falls in the correct position.
I got these from the bank teller who originally pulled them from a brick.
I was thinking in the order of $850.

The error gives us a look at what the face of the multicoloured tens might have looked like had the BoC converted all of them to the black style serial numbers.  Cool error!
