Policy Statement In exercising its discretion to redeem contaminated or mutilated notes, the Bank has an obligation to exercise due diligence in the evaluation of all claims. For example, the Bank will not reimburse a claim where in its opinion: the identity of the claimant cannot be substantiated; the notes are counterfeit or there are reasons to believe that the notes were acquired or are connected to money laundering or other criminal acts; there has been an attempt to defraud the Bank or there exists contradictory or improbable explanations about significant aspects of the claim, such as how the notes were damaged or how they came into possession of the claimant; any of the security features of the notes have been removed or altered or where the notes have otherwise been altered or damaged deliberately or in a systematic fashion, including dyed or chemically washed or treated, by a process that could be reasonably expected to have the effect of altering them.

May Accept and continue. Is it the same for Canadian Bank notes also. I have a Canadian 2 dollar note that has 4 4's at the end of the serial number. Canada c 2 Dollar KP Report this Post to the Staff. Hi, there is some info about notes at the Coins and Canada site. Hope this helps. Canadian bank note collectors are more purists regarding the collectible serial numbers than are U. The notes would have to be true radars, repeaters, solids, etc..

A lot of those "collectible" numbers, I believe have been perpetuated by sellers marketing them on popular auction sites just to get a premium on otherwise common notes. To find out which Canadian serial numbers are collectible, I would suggest picking up a copy of Charlton's Canadian Government Paper Money guide which lists the desirable number types to collect.

Thanks for the help and the website Dottir, it was a big help the website.
