If by CN you mean something like, CN-RGA, then it means its registered in Morocco. If however, you mean CN as in c/n then it's the construction number of the aircraft. In other words the numerical sequence in which it was built. Depends what country you're looking for. A good starting point would be http://homepage.ntlworld.com/airnet/spotting_r.html#registers.
Hope this helps

Are you sure this is not NC instead?
Airplane registered in the USA have a tail number that starts with N with numbers or letters and numbers.
All other planes in the world have alphabetic registration, with the first or the first two letters indicating the country of registration. CN correspond to Morocco.

It's a bit complicated but the following are the only combinations that could be used in the United States:
N1 to N9 — Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) internal use only[1]
N1A to N9Z
N1AA to N9ZZ
N10 to N99 — Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) internal use only[1]
N10A to N99Z
N10AA to N99ZZ
N100 to N999
N100A to N999Z
N100AA to N999ZZ
N1000 to N9999
N1000A to N9999Z
N10000 to N99999
An older (pre-1950s) aircraft may have a second letter in its identifier, identifying the category of aircraft. These are no longer used, but still exist on older aircraft. This additional letter is not actually part of the aircraft identification (e.g. NC12345 is the same registration as N12345). The aircraft category has not been used on aircraft registered since about 1950, but it is still common on antique aircraft for authenticity purposes.
Categories include:
C = standard
L = limited
R = restricted
X = experimental
For example, N-X-211, the Ryan NYP aircraft flown by Charles Lindbergh as the Spirit of St. Louis was registered as experimental.
