End Series 1988A $20

Run #2 of the New York star notes is listed in the April 1991 BEP report as a very unusual 3200 sheets, but based on the serial numbers of observed notes, it actually comprised at least 72000 sheets.

The serial number ranges from L 000 00001 C to L 192 00000 C, from A 704 00001 C to A 256 00000 D, from D 000 00001 B to D 832 00000 B, from B 128 00001 G to B 832 00000 G, from B 512 00001 H to B 960 00000 H, and from K 512 00001 A to K 704 00000 A are missing from the BEP reports. It appears that these notes were in fact printed, so I've added them to the table in approximately their correct locations.

Run #4 of the New York star notes likewise was omitted from the BEP reports and has been added to the table in approximately its correct location. Based on the serial numbers of observed notes, this was a full run of 100,000 sheets.
