A breakdown of these series by date of production is not presently available. According to BEP records, notes of these series were delivered to the Treasury between July 1934 and October 1953.

The table below shows the serial number ranges produced for the regular and star notes in these series. Color denotes the special yellow-seal North Africa printings.

The exact printing sequence of the North Africa star runs relative to the regular note runs is guesswork on my part. In other words, it's possible that the second run of North Africa stars was actually printed at the same time as the third regular North Africa run rather than the fourth; and similar adjustments are possible for the other star runs. But assuming that the BEP's error rate was roughly constant over time, the true sequence of the various runs is likely to be rather close to that indicated in the table.

It is uncertain whether the ending serial number 100000000 was actually printed in all the blocks for which it is here listed. This nine-digit serial had to be applied to a note by hand, since the automatic numbering equipment could hold only eight digits, and it is possible that the BEP did not go to the trouble of printing it in every block.
