| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a monochromatic blue-grey intaglio vignette of a dramatic Rocky Mountain landscape, with a steep rocky peak rising above a tranquil lake framed by coniferous forest, consistent with a view of the Mount Burgess or Banff area. The numeral '10' appears in each corner, with 'TEN DOLLARS – 10 – DIX DOLLARS' across the top margin and 'BANK OF CANADA – BANQUE DU CANADA' along the lower border. The overall design is enclosed within an octagonal guilloche border frame. |

| Opmerkingen |
The 1954 series introduced a modified portrait of Queen Elizabeth II following a public controversy — the original engraving was said to show a demonic face hidden in the Queen's hair, a claim that gained enough traction that the Bank of Canada ordered the plates revised. Whether the "devil's face" was intentional, a pareidolia-driven panic, or a deliberate piece of mischief by an engraver has never been definitively settled. The modified version appeared in 1956, making unmodified 1954-dated examples distinguishable by the hair detail alone.
Three signature combinations span the note's production run, reflecting successive Governors: Towers, Coyne, and Rasminsky.
