| Opmerkingen |
The 1954 series is best known for the so-called "Devil's Face" controversy: in the original printing, highlights in the Queen's hair behind her ear were read by the public as a demonic profile. The Bank of Canada dismissed the claim initially, but public pressure was sufficient that the hair engraving was quietly modified in 1956, creating the two distinct varieties collectors now distinguish as Devil's Face and Modified. The modified notes are far more common; unmodified examples carry a premium across all denominations in the series.
Three signature combinations span the note's long production run, reflecting successive Governor appointments — Coyne, then Rasminsky, then the Bouey/Lawson pairing from the 1970s.
