Canadian Government Paper Money, 16th Edition (A Charlton Standard Catalogue) (Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Government Paper Money)

Posted by admin on 4 July, 2009

Canadian Government Paper Money, 16th Edition (A Charlton Standard Catalogue) (Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Government Paper Money) The new 2004 Edition of The Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Government Paper Money will be released in July, 2003. The previous edition sold out early, resulting in the preparation of the new book ahead of the normal schedule.

Few government note collecting categories have been untouched by price changes. Most of the changes have been increases, but there are also a few decreases where supplies on the market have increased or collector interest has stalled. Changes have not been universal, but restricted to selected note issues.

Among Newfoundland issues, there has been a conspicuous increase in demand for 1920 $1 and $2 treasury notes, with prices pushing upward. Province of Canada notes have moved upward again, while action on Dominion notes is more selective. Some issues have not shown much change; others, including the 1878 and 1912 issues, have moved forward at least for selected grades. Common varieties of the 1923 $1 notes have advanced in high grades while giving up a little ground in conditions below VF, whereas $2 notes of the same issue show increases in better grades with little change in lower grades. Dealers report that there are plenty of well circulated 1923 $1 notes available in relation to collector demand.

The 1935 first issue of the Bank of Canada seems unstoppable, with high grade notes in the higher denominations climbing sharply higher. A 1935 French $100 note in AU/UNC condition recently sold for $19,500 plus tax, prompting a dramatic hike for that particularly rare issue. The 1937 Bank of Canada notes have shown more modest increases for selected notes.

Among the more recent Bank of Canada issues, many of the asterisk, X and insert replacement notes have shown sharp gains while the regular issues have been generally steady. Additional insert note prefixes have been added, with their number ranges, while the serial number ranges of others have been tightened up using new information from ongoing research.

Among the “back of the book” specialty notes, number 1 and solid serial number notes continue to advance, while the millions - numbered notes have given up a little ground. A new type of error note, with multiple serial numbers, has been added to the listings and priced. At the same time, notes with missing OSD’s have been deleted as it has been discovered recently that the OSD’s can easily be removed without a trace by a commercial cleaning compound. Several new error note illustrations have been added.

The 16th Edition GPM consists of 336 pages, continuing with the spiral lay-flat binding which proved so popular with the last edition, in 5.5 X 8.5 inch page format.


Here is something else: physical paper money does not even represent money in full. It cannot reasonably do that. By some estimates (and this varies from nation to nation), only as little as 4% of the money in the banks exists as paper …
