Hello fellow collectors....

Did anyone get a chance to see the latest Canadian Coin News Issue....April 6th edition?  

Well, in the Questions and Answer by Terry A. Campbell, there's an awesome $5 error note that someone submitted.  A photocopy is shown in the paper.  It shows the $5 Journey series note with the intaglio printing upside down on the note.  It's breath taking!!!  ::)

Does any fellow collector have similar notes - Bird or Journey series?


  Smile from your heart.  ;D

Can you scan the pic in the Canadian Coin News Issue?
This wouldn't happened to be one of Tom's wild error would it :)

WOW!!  Surely somebody was profoundly sleeping in the printing room to let this pass through and another one had eyes wide shut in the quality control...It would be interesting to know the serial number

But it's this kind of finding so rare that makes the error collections so exciting if you are lucky enough to find one in a bundle...

This note was posted in the " What's It Worth " on page 3  Under the Title "Ghost Note" about 6 months ago. The Serial Number is Posted there. 8)

Oh by the way.......I am the owner of this note ;D
