I have a similar cue, I believe the M stands for Midnight Series, and the M14 would be one of the earliest models. I bought a used M10 for $250 several years back.
Your cue looks like it's still in good condition and if there are bone ivory points in the forearm as well, I'd put it in the $300-$400 range.
I think you may actually have a Falcon Montreal line cue. It may be an ML-4. I'm trying to find my old brochure for these cues, but it's been a long time since they made that series. The telltale sign will be if the forearm is made of rosewood. The Midnight Series cues usually had a bone ivory joint, not stainless steel. If it's a rosewood forearm, it's a Montreal Line, and could be an ML-3 or ML-4. Based on the label on the shaft, I'd guess an ML-4.
Whichever one it is, it's a nice one, they play great too.. 
You might be onto something there. I wish I'd kept all my old Falcon brochures and catalogs, information on them is hard to come by these days.
Back when Falcon had their plant in Mississauga, I used to spend a lot of time at the factory. I know most of the Canadian made lines up until about 2008.
Like I said, the telltale sign for the OP would be to check the forearm. It looks black in the picture, but it's probably rosewood. If it is rosewood, the ONLY cues I have ever known Falcon to make with a rosewood forearm and the stainless joint is the Montreal line. That cue sold for around $400US back then.
