What is the difference between MOVE 1234,D5 and MOVE #1234,D5? Ive tried to look online, but cant see to find what the first instruction is doing.

The second moves the value 1234 into D5, the first moves the value at address 1234 into D5. You might want to look into addressing modes (for example, here: http://alanclements.org/68kaddressingmodes3.html).

The '#' represents a CONSTANT as explained here.
On Page 43 it states: A constant as a source operand is specified by preceding it with the special character #
