 Here is a small example of the new $20 but I'm sure there will be a better one very soon.

The Queen's hair is lighter, and the big number 20 is kind of cool! 8) (I always wondered what the digit "2" looked like on our Journey notes, since there are no more $2 bills)

Now if only we could see the back of the note...

Later, Jonathan

Hmmm, BOC.  BOC should be a $5 prefix.  Oh well, I bet it stands for Bank of Canada in this case.

Well, I guess that if the prefix BOB (also a guy's name) gets released on a future $5, the next prefix after that would logically be BOD... :D

Like Seth said, the test note prefix BOC probably means Bank Of Canada. :D

Later, Jonathan

P.S.:  Didn't I forget to tell you that the Queen looks somewhat older?

So any preliminary opinions?  I think it's alright, but not as nice as the $5.  I'm sure it'll look nicer when we have them in our hands.

So far, I like the fives.  But wait until the $50's come out...

I'll probably like the new $20's when I get my hands on one in five weeks' time.

I like the overall green colour vs the beige of the previous issue $20's.  Now that there are no $1 notes, the green colour is not in conflict with another denomination.... except the US notes which all look the same to me.

I think that all the notes will look nicer when the series is complete.  Remember how odd it was when it was just the $10?
