Are you fond of collecting Canadian paper money, but aren’t exactly sure where to find great specimens to add to your collection? Well, many collectors out there are wondering the same thing. This hobby has proven to be a great way to preserve valuable items that can be studied by others in the future, which is why collectors are very important. People can learn a lot about a country’s history solely by its paper money and that is why collections can be crucial for different types of research. So, when it comes to expanding your own collection, you’ll be thrilled to learn that this hobby can be a very profitable one. You only need to learn about a couple of tips and tricks that will help your collection grow in size and value as well. Read on to get to know more about what you should do and what you should avoid doing when it comes to expanding your paper money collection.

3 Helpful Hints to get you Started

 

  • Paper-Money Albums

 

When it comes to displaying your collection, it is important to choose the appropriate albums. Avoid cheap ones since these are usually made out of plastic that contains harmful acid. Instead, don’t hesitate to pay a bit more for albums that are clearly of higher quality. Also, it isn’t the best idea to use stamp mounts for loose-leaf paper pages since you can damage the notes pretty easily during that process. Hawid-type strips will do a better job at protecting the notes. So, make sure that your current collection is well taken care of and stored in protective holders before you go on and purchase additions to your collection.

 

  • Shows & Club Exhibitions

 

If you wish to exhibit your collection at clubs, then you should know about special exhibition pages. These allow you to file-index the money alphabetically depending on the town name or subject. Remember that storing your collectible money away in cheap holders can damage them and reduce their value drastically as well.

 

  • Educate yourself on paper money

 

The Krause Publications offer the best choice of books on paper money that are essential to serious collectors. You’ll find all the banknotes of the world and be able to recognize all the paper money from your collection. These books can be found in libraries but it is advisable to purchase one to have all the information in case you stumble upon some good deals to add to your growing collection.

Paper Money Collecting as a Profitable Hobby

When you learn how to store your banknotes properly, you’ll protect them from decreasing in value and therefore, increase the profit. Depending on the theme of paper money you’re interested in, always try finding the uncirculated notes since these are worth much more than the circulated ones. The rarity and historical significance of a banknote play an important role in its value as well. Some banknotes are known to double in value in a period of a couple of years and that is exactly how you can earn profit from carefully chosen collectibles.

Colonial Acres Can Help Your Collection Flourish

Now that you have all the tips to growing, caring and profiting off of your collectible banknotes in the right way, check out Colonial Acres to find the best deals to add to your collection. You can find all sorts of Canadian paper money differing in rarity, themes, and denomination. You’ll certainly find something to your liking thanks to the frequent auctions and unique deals every day. So, in case of any numismatic needs, contact Colonial Acres via e-mail and we’ll promptly reach out to you.
