I agree - but the sad thing is, how many times did they just think of me and not say anything??? I told them that anytime they get old bills in that I would buy them.

and btw, I was able to get $1000 notes from them too!

Hi,

I decided to pay a visit to the big banks in downtown Toronto this afternoon.  At the Bank of Nova Scotia, the teller was able to give me the following notes:

1954 $100 B/J2697067 nice and clean EF

1954 $50 B/H3741505 Nice clean EF; minor crease in centre and edge fold in bottom right corner with residual black ink in margins on back.

1954 $20 B/W4118137 VF; 3 creases and some rippling but bright and clean

1954 $10 S/V 7644254 F; creasing and some minor edge trauma.

The teller also gave me:

3x US $2 series 1976
6x Birds $2 "spenders"
4x 1973 $1 "spenders"

a very good day in the "hunt" for notes!  I always feel like it's a treasure hunt...sometimes you get nothing sometimes they surprise you!

cheers,
Dean

A friend of my wife's Dad had his Lucky note in his wallet....
It was an early Journey $5 that was 7777777

Next time you see him, pull out a ten and ask if he has two fives. Maybe you will get lucky ;D

I have been hunting for years and finally found a 1954 $50 solid radar.  In fact, this is the first one that I
have ever seen.  The note is original CUnc with a minor counting flick.  Based on technical details there is
a possibility of only 16 x 1954 $50 modified solid radars.  The note was purchased privately in BC by a collector
over 20 years ago and I was able to obtain it in a trade.  Lucky 7s !!!  ;D
