Message:: [QUOTE="Notaphylic_C, post: 8073475, member: 130786"]"I own several Dominion and BoC notes, but my faves are the Charter Notes that were issued until 1943."[USER=12789]@scottishmoney[/USER] I've seen your Lady Patricia & I think some of your "faves" & believe you have more (from the depth of what you've posted). Below are a couple of "toughies" though from much larger runs. The "Shirley Temple" $20 BC-9b (above) only had a paltry 800,000 run (2nd small seal). The "large seal" BC-9a (I own but have not posted) is actually scarcer (200,000 run) than the French version (BC-10 at 202,500) but demand for the "F" (French) version remains higher (as does BV). Of course the run size doesn't tell the whole story (whereas registries give a better picture). The 'Un Dollar' BC-2 had a 15M run but I guess as the workhorse (plus a bad habit of pressing notes back in the day when folks started tucking these away), they're pretty scarce with the "Q" or in "Original."
