Canadian Coin Collection Treasure Search - Rare Coins & Currency Found!!!
Happy New Year to everyone out there! While you're celebrating, catch up on an awesome Canadian coin collection that I was able to search - I got it because I work in a coin shop (The Happy Coin) and I was going to Montreal for the holidays, so the owner wanted me to exchange these when I was away. There are lots of old Canadian coins, some great antiquated Canadian currency and bank notes, and a variety of cool commemoratives, World War II coins, and more throughout. This isn't the type of treasure search I get to do on a regular basis, but I'm really glad that I was able to try it out, as I now have some uncirculated Canadian coinage, older dollar bills (how cool is the purple one) and more! By the way, you can skip past the bills (which I search live) to the coins if you're more interested in finding out about those.

Ask your bank teller for old paper or dollar coins. They sometimes have shit they'll just give you at face. I know one guy who got a 1954 devil hair $1000 note. Like a $20,000 value bill. Canadian banks are nuts for old stuff. Best to go to a bank in an older community area.
All those bills are definitely out of circulation, and are becoming more difficult to find outside of the collector market. I’d love to get my hands on that stack!!!

I’m Canadian living in Toronto. We don’t use 2 dollar bills anymore. Some of the 5 bills are newer, and we recently updated our 10 dollar bill to have viola Desmond. Now, we have a 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 500 dollar bills, and no pennies anymore. We use nickels, dimes, loonies, quarters, toonies. Also we dont use 1 d bills. Now all our bills aren’t notes, they are a special type of kind of shiny sea through paper. If you have any questions about Canada please ask me, anyone! Ps we still have cool collector coins. Thank u so much for not butchering Cana, and being nice! And yes we only colourise most of our collector coins at the Winnipeg coin mint.

Wow. That's a great overview with a lot that I've been able to learn! Interesting fact about the Winnipeg mint. I visited my uncle in Montreal area and was impressed with the new currency, but while it was a fun one-time experience, I think I prefer the American composition of currency.

Very cool.. I don't know too much about it.
In Canada we have plastic bills now, no more paper, 1$ and 2$ bills are also not being made any more
The dix dollars... those look kind of rare and I'm from Canada and other places to but yeah! I'm a number man myself... there's a young head right there on the top of the pile! Some of those got a lot of use and what is a birthday note? I recently got sooooo many different Canadians I found and other things. You should spend old money for people too. Canadian history and cool and some older nickels and pennies and funny comments and stuff!

Watching this as a Canadian thinking about getting into coin collecting. I didn't even know we had a $1 bill, lowest I've ever seen on a note is $5. I kind of miss the old $20 bills, the new ones have a plastic part in the middle that just doesn't feel the same. @9:18 you're looking at one of our dollar coins and say the bird on the back is 'probably a swan' it's actually a loon, that's why Canadians refer to that coin as the 'loonie'. The two dollar coin we call the 'toonie'.

2000 and 1999 where monthly series for the 25 cents (24 total). The second one (I think) was a canada wide school contest for the design of the new millenium
1973 is for the anniversary of the mounties. (That 25c can be expensive depending on the bust (small vs large))
Older Canadian bills with a star in front of the serial numbers are worth money and one's with the devils face in the Queens hair are valuable.
From Nova Scotia, the dollar bills were taken out of circulation all together for coin called the loony and the two dollar bill was later also removed and replaced with a coin called the toony. The majority of those bills are no longer used as currency Canada is now using a polymer type of paper as currency. So these are all collectible
i now have the $5.00 bank note printed form 2000-2010
Check for the ones for 1cents pointed 65 or85, also varities like old 2012 loonie or toonie or errors of the cent for 2006
from where you have collected those coins
You already took this all back up to Canada?

$1 and $2 notes have been "demonetized" and are no longer available at the Bank of Canada as wel as other Canadian banks. Go to a Cananadian bank with 1 and 2 Dollar notes and they'll give you a "Looney" ($1 coin) and "Twoney" ($2 bimetallic coin) for them.
The 1973 quarter's might have an error on them if so they are valuable. Also the 1953 nickle can be valuable if the have a certain size date and shoulder fold or not. And the 1982 dollar coins might be very very valuable. I'm sure there were others I missed or you didn't put in the video. I dont know much about bills though. Great video.

Silver was removed from Canada's money supply in 1968 but roughly 50 percent made it through the year process as silver

Hi George - I've had a lot of people ask about purchasing. What are you interested in? I feel as though it would be best not to split it up too much to save time on the sale.
I'm a Canadian coin collector. From the quick view I got most of the bills are common except for the 1937 bills. @9:00 the two dollar coin is from a low mint year, I would call it an uncommon coin. @9:21 it's a loon, that's why it's called a loonie. 1923 nickel is worth about $12. US, 1931 nickel $8. 1867 1967 penny, the bird is a dove and the off center strike is not unusual. There is a rare version of the 1973 quarter worth over a hundred buck but I'd need to see the Queen side of the coin to tell you. Good video thank you.

For the 1954 notes as a whole, pay attention to the Queen's hair as there could be what is known as "David face" notes which are worth more than regular notes of the series.

You dont see much of them here now in Canada I have 1 & 2 bills Looking for rest of older canadian notes
The 1965 cent has four varieties based on the shape of the numeral 5 and the size of the beads.
You should have kept all of that, I know I would have

I’m sad that you spent all those paper ones ): all of them are worth more than face because we don’t make paper anymore as they are COMPLETELY out of circulation you will never find them unless you get really Luckey at a bank. All of the old bills from 1954 are also surprisingly valuable the 1 dollar bills bringing in 5 dollars a piece in circulated condition. Also Canada does colonize their own coins which I think is pretty cool (:

1982 Canadian dollar coin were the reverse is a 190 degrees to the obverse is valuable
next week will end the 1 2 25 500 and 1000 dollar banknotes will no longer be deem as legal tender should keep and look up the preflex could of had a replacement note
