<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Notaphylic_C, post: 8545363, member: 130786&quot;]-thanks for your reply &amp; added attachment showing Bertrand&#039;s 2022 guide.&nbsp; Since the first 2 digits take care of the year the note was issued (like AA15 for the 2nd type of Graeme-Wheeler), I&#039;m guessing that the first prefix is in fact 1,000,000 notes (like all the other prefixes) but that some collectors prefer these.&nbsp; It would be interesting to poll other collectors from NZ &amp; Australia to see if they really do seek them. The last prefixes make sense b/c they can often be short runs. </p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I suggest you poll other collectors is b/c in Canada we have what are called &quot;insert replacements&quot; listed in our Charlton guide.&nbsp; I&#039;ve personally seen interest in these inserts grow &amp; wane yet the catalogue never shows the inserts slip in book value. We have to account for who is on the pricing panel &amp; some of these members are avid insert collector/dealers! (I know its a conflict of interest). </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I don&#039;t find there is much demand for newer notes &amp; even the retired series (15+ years old) don&#039;t sell like the much older series (50+ years old). In that regard, Charlton is hopelessly optimistic (with inflated book values).</p><p><br /></p><p>Another thing you&#039;d never see a demand for here is AA07/AA08 same # collector sets.&nbsp; We had a matching Birds &amp; Journey set our central bank released about 20 years ago called &quot;Lasting Impressions&quot; that flopped (nobody bought them). Most collectors here I know loathe sets! LOL[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
