Ended up with several of the 1974 and 1986 $2 bills growing up when my family traveled to Canada for dad’s work. I lived in rural Ontario for awhile back in 1999 and we still used mostly bills. I liked the ‘74 issue the best!
The same day I was given a $2 dollar note back around 2006 I was in line at timmies and an older man in front of my Mother and I paid for his coffee with a silver dollar. I will never forget how the teller wasn’t sure what to do with it and left it in front of the machine where the man left it. I regret not picking it up and taking it with me.
Got about a dozen or so of the 1974 $2 bills from my dad when we lived in Canada in the 70s, about four are in what appear to be very good shape. They probably haven't been touched in 40 years.
If the bill is in perfectly uncirculated condition (not a single crease or wrinkle), it could go for around $4, but unless it's perfect they are so common they are only worth $2
@@MarlenaXR No, the signature combinations often change a few times during a single banknote’s issue. In this case, the Deputy Governor G. Thiessen was promoted to Governor in 1994. Since the 1986 $2 was printed until 1996, we see a change in the signatures.
There is 2 versions of 1954, the "devils face" and modified portrait. The modified portrait, about 2$ but the devil's face could fetch a pretty penny if you have some of the scare prefix, to know what version you have yoh can look at QEII's hair and the signatures kn the bill, the signatures to look for are Beattie-Coyne with prefix *A/A or prefix H/A and T/A also signatures Coyne-Towers prefix *A/A

I cannot for the life of me find 1954 CA $2 bill with prefix & serial num P/R3086503. Can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction to find the value?
@@CanadianKingCoins Ty for replying. But if it is a very common serial number why can I not find a 1954 $2 bill with the letters PR in the serial number? I downloaded all kinds of books today check I was up all night doing it I could not find it
Enrico Gregory it depends very much on the condition of it. If it has no folds, creases, or wrinkles, so “uncirculated”, it would be worth up to $6 or $7

While you are correct that the $2 denomination will no longer be official legal tender at the end of January, they will continue to be accepted by banks indefinitely, so you never have to worry about them being worth less than they currently are. In this sense nothing really changes
@@CanadianKingCoins yeah you replied quickly! I was just going to edit/delete my post because I realized that fact myself. Just can't be used in stores (although many -maybe smaller- stores will probably still accept them anyway I'm guessing), so no big deal.
@@MsHojat Yeah theoretically the stores could still cash them in at the bank, so it shouldn't cause a problem. I think the whole removing legal tender status thing is likely just so the Bank of Canada isn't liable for any transactions with the old notes anymore (in case someone were to use fakes, a cahier might not be familiar enough to refuse it)
I would check your note for the ser# some are a lot more valuable then others. In front of the serial there is 3 letters known as prefix. Also the signatures on the bills, tbe first issues were Bonin-Thissen and the ones to look for are Ser#BRX3520000 to BRX3579999 as well as any prefix EBX. The second issue was Crow-Bouey with the serial to look for ARX0000001 to ARX1339999, Ser# ARX14000000 to ARX2320000 as well as any prefix AUG,AUH,AUI,AUJ,AUK,AUL,AUM,AUN and finally the last issue Thiessen-Crow and prefixes AUG and and AUH are extremely valuable especially in high grade, there is a few other but those would be the highest money bill you could find
I have a devil's face 1 dollar bill 1954 A 1000 dollar bill and a 2 dollar bill with AUH that is worth some money. I'm going to hang onto them forever.

The Indy-pendent Stacker Yes the 1974 might be my favourite too.
I always wondered how prevalent the $2s were in the years after 1996
maybe you have an idea what mine might be worth .i need to sell them.
What about the 1954 Devil’s Face note?

Chartered banks didn’t issue $2 denominations
For a young man you have good info to share. I thank you for the great video. Keep up the great work.
I try to rescue these note from my bank when ever I can :) it's difficult as they are often determined to destroy them :)
Andrew Derksen Yes rescuing twos is always satisfying!

By rescuing do you guys mean going in and asking for any twos that may have been deposited to them?
@@emjay604 in Canada all notes that are not plastic are sent off to be destroyed

Cool vid we dont have 2 dollar notes in Australia anymore
Well that makes two of us then!
I have a two bill, it's the one with the Inuit preparing for battle in the back, is it worth anything?
It could be worth up to $6 if it’s in perfect condition
i have an egj61
Great information !!!
The 1974 issue is my favourite 😊
How about 1986? I have one of them
Good video. So informative, too. Thanks.

As the PR prefix is not a rare run, unless your banknote is in perfectly immaculate condition, it’s only worth around $2 to $3
