Canadian Money Can Be Worth Big $$

I often come across foreign currencies in suitcaes or just in boxes. More than anything else I find canadian money. Pretty much most canadian bills from the 1970's in decent condition are worth a decent buck.

If they are graded you can get several hundred dollars per bill. Even not graded in good shape at least $50 a note.

Came across a unit today with a couple 20's and a bunch of 2's

How about that one from 2000 I just cashed in at McCarren Airport Wells Fargo ?  On yeah, I got a total of $12.50 for a fiver and a single.

Canadian Dollar is actually worth 3 cents more than the US Dollar right now. The Canadian notes that seem to be really collectible are the notes from the 1970's.

I havn't done all that much reasearch into them as far as specific notes, which treasurers signatures on the notes make it worth more, etc. I would imagine smaller denominations in good shape are probably worth more than others. I think 20 is the most common note and larger notes dont get as much wear and tear but signles, 2's and fives I imagine wear down quick so if you find any in good condition may have some good money there.
