Reporting new prefixes

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

When reporting new prefixes, especially those that extend known prefix ranges, let’s post images of notes in this thread. This way we will know for sure that the new prefix exists and is not an entry error. In the past, some of the users of SNDB never bothered reporting their errors and they stayed in the database for years. Here is $10 FFC.

Agreed.  New prefixes are certainly worth making a forum post!  We are also working on some better ways of checking for errors in the SNDB section.

I had tried to post the pic when I first found the FFC note on June 23 but when I added it to SNDB the pic never showed up. Darn technology lol.

Admin, please enable the database to accept $20 FZ* notes. Prefixes FZB, FZE and FZN have been reported. Here is an FZB note.

I picked up a few $100 GJY notes today. These are from a new print run as they have the same varnish pattern as $5 HCV or some of $20 FZ* prefixes.

Please re=enter any new $20 in the FZ* series as the admin has added them to the DB.

Just got a couple of 5$ notes with prefix IND, a pleasant surprise during these times!

Nice find! So after HN*, HO*, HP*, HA*, HB* and HC* we will be seeing IN*, IO*, IP*, IA*, IB* and IC*, which makes sense.

The note has been added to the DB

You can now add these prefixes to the database as the admin has added them.

Pulled some cash out of the ATM at TD today and got some new GMB prefix. What I found interesting is the extra frosting around the hologram area. See attached for a comparison.

Good find! GMB notes are from a new print run, with the same varnish pattern as $5 HCV-HCZ and INA-IND, $20 FZN and $100 GJY.

Admin, pls enable IND 0069996 07 07 have a few of them, database wont accept, thank you

Very surprising that we're seeing printer letter I now, despite that many retailers refuse to accept cash during these difficult times.  I guess it's safe to say that denominational letter G will be recycled on the $10 bill, once the FF* series runs its course.

One user (whose name is not mentioned), many years ago, did claim that denominational letter G would be on tbe ten.  It turns out he will have been right, most likely, and this could imply he may have inside information or connections with the Bank of Canada.

The introduction of printer letter I on the five will be the first new printer letter for the five in nearly two decades.  If not for printer letter A prefixes sporadically released from 2002 to 2009, we probably would have seen the printer letter I ages ago.

$50 GME found in Toronto.
