Description
This $100 1954 Modified Series banknote represents the post-"Devil's Face" redesign of Canadian currency, where Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait was subtly altered. Issued during a time of design refinement and modernization, this specific note features the C/J prefix and the Lawson-Bouey signature combination.
Graded PMG About Uncirculated 53 EPQ, the note retains full originality and crisp paper, confirmed by the "Exceptional Paper Quality" designation. It exhibits light handling consistent with the AU grade but remains visually clean with excellent color, margins, and embossing.
This is a solid opportunity for collectors of mid-century Canadian notes or those building a high-grade modified portrait set.
