The commemorative issues from 1986 to 1990 form a fascinating area of study for the collector of modern Canadian issues and are the subject of this week's blog post. You are encouraged to read the post for more information about these issues and specifically about the different papers used in production during this time. In the case of the paper varieties, many are not listed in Unitrade. So, in valuing them we take the Unitrade value of the listed variety that is closest to the actual variety we are describing.
