Are these devil head notes? I cant tell- hoping to get some help from fellow members.
And any kind of valuation would help too.

No, they are not.
This is a Devils Face, or Devils Head note.

Price Guide - Issues of 1954, devil's face
This series caused controversy because highlighted areas of the Queen's hair gave the illusion of a grinning demon behind the ear. The term "Devil's Head" is commonly used to describe these bank notes. The Bank of Canada had both bank note companies modify the face plates by darkening the highlights in the hair. These modifications were made in 1956 for all denominations.
