Yes, That is Termed a "Block". it is a Sealed BoC Pack of Bricks.

4000 Notes = $20,000

I have gotten these on a regular basis. I have also been documenting the Sticker numbers in an effort to determine if there seems to be a logical order in regards to prefixes. I have found some INTERESTING results...  ;)

Good work, Blocks are the only way to go as you KNOW no middle-man has gotten their fingers in your notes.

Keep up the good work!!!

the CBN (Canadian Bank Note Company) has been supplying notes mixed like this since the new tens came out in May (2005) -

If the CBN are mixing up their bricks -- does this mean the days of the insert are over?  How can a brick searcher determine if a note is an insert or not?

Random ordered bricks doesn't bode well for today's brick searchers..

I'd be currious to see what an end to inserts would do to current prices.

Excerpt from Gilles Pomerleau's November newsletter:

"It seems like the the Bank of Canada is getting rid of all notes printed by Canadian Bank Note: the $5 of course but the $20 printed 2006 and the rest of the $50 (FMG - H - I - J) and this has been happenning mostly since CBN was sold again to an American company.  Is it possible that CBN will not print anymore Canadian paper money ?  The prefixe(s) coming out November 15th should hold part of the answer."


If CBN stops printing Canadian paper money than the brick searchers will be a happy group.  Unlike CBN, the bricks from BABN always come in an orderly and sequential fashion.  This bodes well for the future of inserts and the premium quality of UNC notes pulled from BABN bricks.
