FLZ?

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

I learned just now that a new prefix, FLZ, was reported to the SNDB recently.  That seems to be an unusually big jump in prefixes since FLA was the only FL* prefix reported thus far, and according to some other user he said that the initial batch of Lane-Macklem $20s only go as far as FLH.

Unless FLZ is a Rogers-Macklem $20, I am taking this FLZ find with a grain of salt.

Most likely an error post. No notes above FLA have been reported to date and it is very unlikely that they would have released FLZ before all others. For now i would disregard this posting of FLZ.

Agreed that this is likely an error.


Anecdotally, circulating $20s in Vancouver are still almost exclusively Wilkins-Poloz or the older Macklem-Carney. So far there have only been very limited amounts of Lane-Macklem $20s released out of presumably over 60 million notes printed (FZT–FZZ and FLA).


I'd be blown away if they were already releasing Rogers-Macklem $20s with all the hordes of Lane-Macklem notes that must still be sitting in vaults. Pure speculation on my part, but at the glacial pace that Lane-Macklem $20s have been trickling out, it's possible that there wouldn't be any Rogers-Macklem $20 notes until the upcoming King Charles vertical notes expected in early 2027 (barring delays).
