Not sure what info your looking for, but it is a Devil's Face.
That particular prefix series had a printing of 40 million,
the most of any prefix.
The catalogue value in EF is 80 Canadian dollars.

Definitely keep it, but if you sell it, sell it in Canada as it is a desirable collectible here.

Tough to say without pics. 30-35 Dollar note in EF raw on ebay at auction. Although some sellers try to shoot for the stars...As with much other numismatic material on ebay.

For world notes, there are three Krause catalogs, 1368-1960, 1961-date, and the last is a specialized catalog for private bank issues.

Go to realbanknotes.com for their image gallery of world notes.

Yes devil faces do retain a certain premium but its true value will be in condition, face value signatures and serial numbers.

Pictures please...
