| 背面描述 | Printed in green intaglio, the reverse carries a wide panoramic vignette of the Canadian prairie landscape with a dirt road receding toward the horizon beneath a dramatic cloudscape, telegraph poles lining the track and a grain elevator visible in the far distance. The denomination ONE DOLLAR / UN DOLLAR is inscribed across the top, and BANK OF CANADA – BANQUE DU CANADA across the bottom, both within ornate guilloche borders. The entire design is framed by an elaborate lathe-work border with the numeral 1 repeated in the side panels. |

The 1954 "Devil's Face" controversy is the most documented design incident in Canadian banknote history. Engravers at the British American Bank Note Company worked from a portrait photograph that, when rendered in intaglio, produced shading behind the Queen's hair that many Canadians read as a leering Satanic profile. Public pressure forced a modification to the master die — the corrected version softened the highlighted curl — making the original issue immediately collectible and the two variants a fixture of Canadian numismatic classification.
Four signature combinations span a surprisingly long active life for a single design series, running from Coyne through Rasminsky's governorship and into Bouey's tenure.
