There's something you guys are overlooking.  Those $1,000 notes were not printed in 1954.  Lawson-Bouey signatures did not appear on paper money until 1973 at the earliest.  The serial numbers are relatively high, indicating the notes may not have been issued until the mid- to late 1980s before the changeover to Thiessen-Crow.  These notes were  put aside after the stagflation era of the 1970s.  So not as much potential investment revenue was lost on them.  The moral of the story is the date on earlier issues of paper money corresponds to when the design was engraved, not to the actual age of the note.

They're not 57 years old.  They can't be printed any earlier than 1973, based on the Lawson-Bouey signatures.
