SNR Registry is now completed and ready !!!!!!!!!!

News: Welcome to the Canadian Paper Money Forum.

What if you don't own a camera or a scanner like Arthur says but the notes have been TPG'd by a company that has a population check. At least those notes would have a recorded serial number and grade. Maybe an extra column can be added with, and this is only an example, "BCS ad123", or you know when you have a pic and the serial number is blue, what if it could be linked to the TPG's popuation check for that note.

Already being done as of about 2 hours ago. BCS notes will have their grades turned into a link that will bring you directly to the BCS website with the details for that note. Check out some examples in the GPH Replacement Note Register.

I've been working on this stuff, unlike you, sir.

Unfortunately at my age my brains are gone to mush, I can hardly remember where I put my notes, and worst of all ....I would only be a hindrance to the project.....without glasses all the numbers look the same.

What is the serial number please?

If this inquiry is for the purpose of the SNR registry, I would hope that the requirement for a scan/image be a prerequisite.

It has been a long standing requirement that a scan of any new finds be submitted before a note is added to a CPMS maintained registry.

It is imperative, in my opinion, that we maintain the credibility of these registries by verifying the authenticity of any new additions by insisting on an image before the serial number is added to the registry.

Scans are great, and are requested whenever it is possible to obtain one, but sometimes notes do get listed without scans. The lack of a scan ought not to preclude the collection of data. If data is not collected when it is made available, it may be lost for a very, very long time, or even forever.

As you always should, take everything you see on the Internet with a grain of salt. Just because you don't see an image, doesn't mean it's not real. Similarly, even if you do see an image, that doesn't mean it is real.

Questions

1) How long should it normally take for a the Journey Series Replacement Note Registers to be updated after an email submission is sent ?

2) Are there multiple persons monitoring the wiki@cdnpapermoney.com mailbox ?


I sent a handful of very rare registry updates (with scans) on March 28th, to both the Wiki mailbox and freedomschoice mailbox, and noticed that the site hasn't been updated with these entries yet.

These registries were setup with much fanfare and enthusiasm, and as such, I would anticipate that there are bodies available to assist in the update process.  Regular updating of these registries will hopefully encourage others to submit their SNRs for inclusion and lead to a more accurate accounting of the number of these notes in existence.

I can volunteer my time in the future to assist with registry updating, but right now my plate is full, as I have less than 3 weeks to provide my pricing recommendations for the upcoming 22nd Edition of Charlton Canadian Government Paper Money catalogue. 

Hi Arthur

Sorry for the slow reply but I was in Hamilton all weekend. I do not get any of the emails from the wiki box but I do have access to input anything that goes into the wiki. If you still have my email please email me the info and I will make sure it is registered promptly. If you don't have it, then just let me know and I will send an email.

Hi Denis,

Thanks for taking the time to update the Wiki site with the images and information on the SNRs I emailed you.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.  I will be compiling a list of additional notes for you shortly.

I rushed like heck to get the SNR registry up and running, but I have been bogged down with the tax season upon us. Also dealing with a death in the immediate family and yes, Canada banknote did send me an email which I still have. I apologize for being slow right now, but that's just the way it is for me until after april 30th. My wife has taken the loss of her mother hard and we are  coping as well as can be expected.  I haven't even had time to get here here much in the last month. Maybe a few minutes here or there. Tonight was my first time to actually spend some time here. So again...my apologies and I will be back on track for the SNR registry for may. Thanks to all who have contributed and hopefully my tardiness doesn't hurt other people submitting to the registry. Its a great tool for learniing and keeping up to date. Thanks one and all.   Freedomschoice

Hey Freedomschoice.

No need to apologize.  We all are so darn busy and You have taken on a huge job.  We appreciate it.  If people seem to sometimes be non-existent, it is  because they are busy. 

The nice thing is that when they come back on, it is just like a happy family again.

cheers
