Answer
Hi Shawn, Collector value of a note depends on date, signatures and condition, including amount of wear, any folds, tears or stains as well as collector demand.
The early 1954 issues have a 'devil's face' in the hair by the queen's ear. These are worth a bit more than the corrected version with the same date depending on signature, amount of wear and collector demand.
Let me know which you have and the signature names and I can give you an estimate of their value.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
