Dean’s finds

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

June 3rd purchase:

I purchased the following lots of notes and stamps from an online auction for a reasonable sum.

Eight devil face $1s A/A to H/A…all Coyne Towers signed.  One note has an interesting date stamp on it.  I’ll comment separately on my other thread about that!

A 1937 $1…and

A group of British Empire stamps


Enjoy,
Dean

June 4th find:

Just returned from the bank machine…I got this 2013 FTH changeover note, Macklem Poloz.

Is it worth keeping?

Dean

Nice lot of Devil's Face Dean.

I don't think your FTH (Macklem-Poloz) has any premium as it is the change-over with 837 notes have been reported.  Not overly common but not too hard to find either.  It would have to be UNC for any premium.

Here's a link to the Macklem Carney FTH (13 reported in the SNDB) but Charlton hasn't acknowledged its scarcity for some unknown reason. BV's have remained unchanged since this series ended in 2018.

Hi collectors,
It was around 6 months ago I ask to the cashierto keep all notes before polymer series.She said no problem.Every weeks she have some.

Ordinarily I found nothings special.The last 3 weeks I found some notes special.
This one nothings special except many 100$.

Hi,
She take me out 97x5$ journey and this is what I found.If you take a look on the first 5$ I remark where the security strip is at the left and on the right it miss the blue color?On the HPT we can see a ''black ink of the armoirial''and the last one it's HAF prefix.

Hi again,
This one is only 10$,20$ and 100$.

Hi,
In the last post I found a 20$ALZ incomplete prefix and also the same for the 100$ BKG and BJZ.

Hi,
In this one she take me out 166x1$ 1973 and for a surprise I found a 1$ with two small ''B''variety it's the second I found.For the 100$ it's a radar.With the 97x5$ journey a other surprise it's a mismathed serial number.
I would like to share with my discovery.

Hi Claude,

I will buy $1 and $2 notes…Did you give back the other $1s?

I’d be interested in the $5 mismatch if your selling.

Claude, the mismatched serial # on the $5 is an amazing find!

I bought an ALZ $20 as they are tough to find in high grade. Nice to see you got some other tough prefixes (like HAF).  Not sure about the security strip as we've seen a lot of post-production damage on those. You should seek somebody's (like LCS) opinion, or take it to a show & see what other say when inspecting it in person.

Interesting scores. Thanks for sharing!

June 6th finds:  Paper money plus some polymer finds too!

Today I went to one of my regular banks to make a cash withdrawal.  I asked my teller contact if she had any paper money; I was allowed to look through a pile of $5000 $100 and $50 notes.  Lots of journey $100s in nice shape, but of course, I didn't have time to look for SNR and sheet replacements!

From the paper money, I grabbed a pair of consecutive birds $50s that looked recently crumpled...

a birds $100 with an interesting serial number but in not so great condition and a journey $100.

My most interesting finds came from my "regular" cash withdrawal, which was NOT from the ATM, but from the teller's drawer in the cash cage!

I received a 2017 commemorative $10 CDF prefix note, a 2013 $10 FTN Wilkins-Poloz changeover prefix note and a polymer $100 with a neat serial number FKE 0600066.

If anybody would like any of my finds from today's haul, please send me a message ASAP.  (The CDF commemorative note is not for sale though).

Enjoy!

June 7th finds:

Things seem to be heating up again…

Today, I received two $1000 notes and five birds $2s.

They are circulated, but the teller saved them specifically for me so I felt obliged to take them.

Notice the old school practice of someone writing their bank account number on the note, just in case the teller made a mistake…🤣🤣😀🤣🤣

If anybody would like to save one or both of these $1000s from the shredder or just needs one as filler for their collection until a better one comes along, please send me a PM as soon as possible...For sale at face value plus the cost of shipping.

Thank you for your interest!
