News: Registration is free here at the CPMF!

I have 2 canadian paper notes that I would like to find the value of. The first is a $1 note,march 31, 1898 series J.The bill has one small rip, some creases & is dirty. Serial #503548.       The second is a twenty five cent note from Jan 2,1900, has some wrinkles & is  a little dirty. Thanks for any help.

It would be help full to have a scan of the notes to give a better estimate..

The  1 Dollar 1898 note:the J series of  notes...
4 million printed...
it should have the signature of JM Courtney on the right...
The note lists for in the Charlton Catalogue in "Fine condition" for $375.00 which means in pretty rough shape..but still having some crispness ... if it has small  tears and pin holes and is soiled your looking around $165.. or less
Remember these are list prices.. just guidelines to the apox. value
The  25 cent note... I need a lot more information
You will have to send a scan or picture to the site in order to give an apox price..
 it can go from $5 to a $1000 depending on the signature  and condition..
Hope this helps...

I have scaned the 2 notes but haven`t figured out how to post the pictures
