Araud the image did work as i can see it from the link you provided. The note appears to be a modified 1954 Lawson Bouey. Depending on the condition, VG ti Gem Unc by book the value would range from $1000.00 (face value) to $1800  (Gem Unc) each note. But in today's depressed market i would value even a gem unc note around $1600.

The old story, what is a buyer willing to pay you for them?

Hope this helps you a bit?     Gee IF only they we devil's face notes, first 1954 issue, Coyne Towers signatures, and in gem unc condition. The value would be much greater !

Arnaud my apologies for mistyping your name. The fact two notes are in sequence really doesn't increase the value. Most dealers sell notes one by one so a sequential pair would require a collector who is very serious about having notes that are in sequence.

@billhnter, no worries mate! And thanks a lot for the information, I think I might go get them evaluated by a numismatist?
