Just found another cool thing... crisp 5$ bills in sequence.

I was at work today and I checked our cash box (as I usually do for coins that interest me - of course always replacing those coins with common coins of the same value) and I noticed there were four crisp 5$ Canadian bills. I turned them over and checked out the serial codes, all in sequence! Was very cool to see, first time I ever came across something like that... and the bills look like they just came off the press - which is weird because they are from 2006.

Anyhow, here is a pic!

That's odd, I've only found 3 2006 $5 bills floating round in circ. I think they can actually fetch a bit for unc

5 $ bills are taken outta circ every 2 years or so.

Same! i've been struggling to find a crisp $5

Try paying for parking at Pearson Intl. with a $20 bill, I got two mint $5 bills that way.

If you get money at a Bureau de Change you usually get notes in sequence and crisp notes too.

2006 crisps?

You never know...bills might not have been used...I was suggesting if you wanted crisp notes that is always a good way of getting them.

Are the 2006 5$ bills worth anything in crisp circulated condition? I just thought it was cool to find the 4 of them in sequence, didn't think they would be worth much more than face value though.

Hello,

Yes they are worth something. What you have to do is look in the Canadian paper money catalog (I don't have one right now) and look at the UNC value for your serial numbers. The general rule that I have heard for this sort of thing is 10% above book value. So say each note is worth $10 in UNC then your 4 would be worth $44. This is just an example. If you were going to sell this right now no dealer would pay much over face value. When the new polymer ones come out next year they might be worth more. If you hold onto them for 10 years and then sell them, they will be worth much more.
