Didn't think I would ever get this signature combination from the bank but today was my lucky day. There were only 240,000 of these printed.

Lucky Duck!
Hooray Hooray
If I'm not mistaken this was the only 1954 issue out of all the denominations with either G.G. Thiessen or J.W. Crow.

Although not a denomination I'd chase, I'd say you must be some kind of rock star to be treated so kindly at your bank! Pretty awesome to acquire at FV!

Thanks everyone!
This one really surprised me too. I walked into a branch, that is not one of the banks I deal with, and that I have never been to before. I said my standard line, mentioned that I'm not a client and she asked me to wait. About 5-10 minutes later the manager came out of the vault with a handful of old notes and 40 rolls of pennies. Luckily, I had enough cash on me to purchase the best notes and the pennies since I didn't have an account with them. She even took my phone number for the next time she gets something in!
It never hurts to ask, all they can say is no (which I do hear often!!).
