Hi collectors,

I really apreciate if you have any information or discovery about variety of large B and small B in 2$1986 in prefix BG or in 1$1973.I try to found the possibility of the edge or end of the range.
Thank you.

Hi,

Here are some $2 birds notes in the BG…series that I picked up in the bank note hoard I bought.
All small “B”s.

Additionally, here are pictures of some BBA-BBZ notes from the hoard;  BBA-BBM have large “B”s, BBT-BBW have two small “B”s

None of the notes have “mixed Bs”.

Hi collectors,
I want to show you my last discovery about the two small ''B'' in 1$1973.I found a other one.I really apreciate if you have any information on that kind of dicovery to let me know.I also do the 2$ 1986 with one or two smal ''B'' in prefix BGA to BGZ.If you have prefix BG... without large ''B'' would you like to let me know because I'll put this information in my huge list.
Thank you.
Claude

BBA-BBM have large “B”s, BBT-BBW have two small “B”s

I do know BBN definitely has two large Bs.  BBN was likely the last full prefix with two large Bs.  Been following serial numbers closely since the 1980s.

Hi AJG,
When I said
BBA-BBM have large “B”s, BBT-BBW have two small “B”s...

I was referring to the group of notes in the picture I was describing.

Hi,
For now all 2$ with a starting prefix BBA...BBN have large B on the first B and a small B on the second,sowhere in prefix BBP we saw the transition the large B change for a small B and after BBP to BBZ it's all small B.But in prefix BGA to BGZ it supposed to be all small B but we found in some prefix it have large B on the left or on the right or on the both side.Also large B was found in 10$ 1989 in prefix BDD.Finally at my surprise I found this kind of ''error'' in 1$ 1973.All 1$ 1973 who start prefix(3letters) with letter B it all large B execpt the two I found,for now??
If you have any discovery in 2$ 1986 and 1$ 1973 please inform me.
Thank you.

I have in BGJ 62 notes reported BGL one note BGP 5 notes BGR one note BGS one note I also have 10$BDD one note.

Claude, would you be able to tell what variety the above-mentioned notes are? Large/Large, Small/Large or Large/Small?

You probably have them already on your list but currently on fleabay:

BGJ 2434147 (small/large):

BGJ 1704423 (small/large):

Hi,
Yes you have reason those 2$ are on my list.The variety is the same of your 2$,one small ''B'' on left side and large ''B'' on the right side.The higher number in prefix BGJ with one large''B'' it's BGJ4374892 and all BGJ over this serial number have two small ''B''and it's a regular one.The things I remark it's in other prefix (BGL,BGM,BGP,BGR and BGS)with this variety when it have one small''B'' and one large ''B'' all large ''B'' is on the left side and in prefix BGJ is on the right side.And about 10$ (BDD prefix) and 100$ (BJD prefix) they are on the right side??For now for 1$ 1973 with small ''B'' I only found both small ''B'' and a friend of mine found 2x1$ 1973 and it's the same both small ''B''.
If you found something would you like to share it with me?
I hope it help you.

Hi,

Of course if you have some with one or two large ''B'' I'll apreciate it to.
Thank you.
Claude

Hi Claude,

I found these Bird banknotes last week from a Royal Bank branch in the Ottawa Valley.  There is a mismatch BGJ with a fairly low serial number as well as 2 banknotes with a big B and small B prefix.  Please use this information for your research and database.
