I would appreciate if someone could provide me with some insight on the value of a 1954 $1000 devil's face bill. The bill is in very good shape; no marks or folds. sn AK1020650

Based on the serial number you have provided, this note is not a 1954 $1000 Devil's Face.
The $1000 Devil's face was issued with serial numbers between A/K0000001 and A/K0030000.
If the serial number you have provided (A/K1020650) is accurate then the note is a modified 1954 $1000 with the signatures Lawson-Bouey.
This is the most common variety of 1954 $1000 bank note.

The signatures are Lawson-Bowey and the serial number is correct however the image certainly looks like it contains a devils face. Would an image help?

There is an image to a 1954 $1000 devil's face in the following link. http://wiki.cdnpapermoney.com/index.php/Image:BC-36_AK0016892.jpg (http://wiki.cdnpapermoney.com/index.php/Image:BC-36_AK0016892.jpg) As you can see, the devil's face is extremely clear but in your example, it is actually rather diffuse. They only changed the highlights of the Queen's hair, not the actual engraving, so if you look really carefully, you see something that looks a little like a face, but it isn't really clear, but in the example above, it is more unambiguous.
