- I got a call from my local antique dealer who said he had a stack of OLD CANADIAN PAPER MONEY. In total, he had $266.50 and was only asking the $300 he bought it for. Lots of these bills are circulated and will only be worth face value. But... if we can eke out a few gems, we might do really well! Let's have a look together!

Canadian collector here. I collect a lot of these bills and from my experience the Charlton guide inflates a lot of the prices. I use the guide solely as a reference to see what might have some value, then I go on the internet and do more research to find out what the actual values are. More often than not you'll find that the prices in the guide are considerably more than what the real world is paying for them.
That's a fair point, for sure. You certainly need to take any published prices with a grain of salt, for sure. ebay sold prices can give you a good idea (but you have to pay attention to shipping costs, too).
it was great to see and feel a bit of paper money nostalgia. Thanks, take care! From QC
Thanks so much for watching. See those old bills does remind me of my childhood!
@@CADRollHunter yup, i miss the paper 2$ somehow
You did fantastic. I would've kept them all. If I would have the chance I would definately purchase bills if offered. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Tom! I'd love to keep them all, too!!
My banks are getting annoyed of me politely asking and I will never cease.
*DAMN! This was a great purchase & profit mate. Love Canadian currency. One of my TOP3 Countries to collect. :D*
It's so much fun getting a stack of bills like this - I love it!
A lot of great notes, James! Again, I need an antique dealer like yours.😂
Don't start thinking about any cross-border shopping trips. I'll make sure he stops you at the door!!
@@CADRollHunter 😀😀😀
Very cool currency haul.
Thanks, Nicole!
I don't collect bills, but I love to look at them, reminds me of the times when I was younger. :D
Same here - the money of my childhood just takes me back!
Holy stacks, @CADRollHunter ! You made a great purchase. I would do the same given the opportunity to search through so many banknotes. One never knows what may be waiting for you. I agree once searched one can decide to keep/spend/sell/trade. I see the book has come in very handy. Good job. I liked seeing the shin plaster notes. $2 ones are cool too. Take care.
Thanks, Ogir! It might have been worth it if I only kept a few, just to have the opportunity to look through them. But you're right - you never know when there will be a gem in there!
@@CADRollHunter dilemma…dilemma…dilemma. The problem with so much good stuff. If you have extras, you up to trade a $1 and $2?
@@OgirCoins @OgirCoins - send me an email at cadrollhunter@gmail.com. I might have a few extras these days!! 🤣
@@CADRollHunter okay. Great. Will reach out.
That was a lot of fun to watch, so it must have been a lot of fun to do! I have taken old bills anytime. A few years back, I even got a National Currency $50. The teller initially thought it was counterfeit, but took it and saved it for me. Will your local bank take the $1 and $2 bills as they are no longer circulating bills? Maybe it's like cents (pennies) in that they have to take them and return them to the Bank of Canada / Royal Canadian Mint.
Yes, they'll accept old bills. They actually won't take anything older than the 1954s - they're instructed to refuse those. Particularly because they typically are far more valuable than face value in any condition. It still happens, though. And they are certainly supposed to send everything back for destruction.
Great collection you picked up there ❤️🔥 I’d be interested in getting some of whatever your not gonna keep. Let me know please
bills are so nice to look through.
I agree - thanks for watching!
Yes I’d buy them. Great hunt today
I love paper bills. So far I have held onto every single paper bill I got.
I'd love to keep them all, but I've got too many now!
As an American I love seeing foreign bills. I have a collection of older Italian Lira and some Euros. I'd love to get my hands on some Canadian bills but they're difficult to come by.
I feel the same way about seeing foreign banknotes. Always nice to see something out of the ordinary!
If my TD bank called me and told me they got a stack of old paper bills, I would buy them all.
Absolutely!
I got some 1954 $1 Canadian bills at auction, there was an uncut section of two bills. They are crisp although the cut isn’t perfectly on the edge. What is your opinion on uncut bills?
I haven't the 1954 uncut like that before. I think they're actually quite neat. You can get full uncut sheets of 1973 $1 and 1986 $2. I'd like to get one of those some day, framed in my office.
Hey, I would love to trade with you or even buy some of them im American living in the USA so it's really tough for me to get some of these for my collection.
Uang kertas yang ini hampir sama dengan uang kertasnya dollar Amerika Serikat
Are the one and two dollar Canadian bills demonetized, or, do Canadian banks turn all one and two dollar bills in for destruction? I can tell you that Canada's paper money puts the US to shame. My favorite bill is the 1954 $50 denomination with the Mounties on the reverse. The colors are striking.
The Mountie $50 is also my favourite (actually from 1975). I was fortunate to pick up a few in decent condition from my bank a few months bank. I quite like the fact that the bills change regularly enough to have something to look forward, and older designs to try and find!
If you want, I can sell you a 1988a series 20 usd bill.
I would have kept less
Thanks for weighing in!
