I have this 1954 2$ and was wondering if it is worth more than $2. I am not a paper collector, so I'd appreciate opinions.

Thanks!

Russ

How do you know if it is a devil's face or not? Check the Coin and Canada for more pricings on paper money.

This note has a book value of $14

My dad gave it to me as an allowance on vacation!

I got it in 1962 or 63 when my parents and I drove from LA to Calgary and Vancouver on vacation. I immediately put it in a book and have kept it since. I also have a couple of ones (one with DF, thanks to CB's great pic above) and another two, but they are worn more.

I am not a note collector and I am away from my reference material, but I think that the signatures suggest this note is from around 1971..... I don't think it is possible that these signatures were on the note in 1962.
