The Devil is -- indeed -- in the Details: Canadian Money Mis-step

Devil’s face Canadian notes



The "Devil's Face" relates to a huge media blitz that occurred immediately after the first printing of this note. 

Someone noticed the face of a devil embedded within the hair of the queen (front of the note in the queen's hair). Because of this outcry, Canada stopped printing the image and subsequent note and came up with a new replacement image. 

Thus, the "Devil's Face" Canadian Currency notes are extremely rare and highly collectible.


Proudly, Treasuredstocks.com has excellent examples of this and many other highly collectible Currency Notes -- US and Foreign.  Call us at 870-670-4255 or email jeff@treasuredstocks.com  for help and support, as you venture into Currency Note Set collection.

How to Start a Currency Collection

I want to start collecting coins and currency items; where do I start?

Collectors of coins and currency do so for many reasons. One of the most common collector is the hobiest who collects more for fun and appeal, rather than profit. Often, this attraction begins as a child who, by chance or purpose, receives an item that is both fascinating and historical.

An increasingly popular reason to pursue collecting of coins and currency is to do so as an investment Persons who use collections as a kind of investing do so with the idea that the value of the items, in singular or total, will increase over time. Supply and demand is the key concept here as well as a critical understanding that collections do not “make” money until they are sold and may even incur costs, such as the costs of safe and secure storage.

A third type of collector is the person who acquires a collection via inheritance. This person may or may not have any real interest in the items but appreciates potential value.

One great advantage we have today is the internet. For example, take a careful look around our Treasuredstocks.com web site and you will see over 4,000 items, of all categories, grades, and prices, all graded and all in full color view. And now a bit about grading. A graded item allows collectors to speak the same language when it comes to the condition of the item.

The term “Numismatics” refers to the study or collecting of coin/currency. A numismatist is someone who does this by hobby or profession. Here is a great web site to use, when learning more about such an exciting field. There’s even several links specifically designed for children.
