    I thought this was kinda cool for less than $5. I don't know a great deal about paper money from other countries, and didn't even know Canada had fractional currency. Canada even have four dollar bills.

    I thought about putting together a set, but the 1 and 2 dollar notes bring $20 each, even in low grades.

    Ummm also, there are often "French Canadian" & "English Canadian" notes, making it twice as cool/hard to finish your collection!! (but they're are very sweet lookin' notes!!)

    I've always been partial to the 1937 Canada Series (the year my Mother's family came to Canada)

    Actually, I see that two Can$1000 notes are pictured. Both are beautiful.

    I have some older Canadian currency from the 1950s to the early 1980s that was found in circulation when traveling in Ontario and Quebec. Mostly $1, $2, $5, $10 and $20 banknotes. The $1 and $2 notes were from the times before the introduction of Loonies and Twonies ended the circulation of lower denomination banknotes.

    I don't collect them but I do have a well used 1954 $2 that would go with you $1 note.
