Admiral Issue

ADMIRAL ISSUE 1911-1925

All values were engraved by the American Bank Note Co. of New York
The 1c,2c,3c,5c,10c,20c,50c values issued in late 1911 have both unhardened and
hardened proofs. All subsequent values have only hardened proofs.
Two common dies were used.
The earliest dies were from the'original' die with a weak upper right frame line.
Later dies were from the 'redrawn' die with that frame line strengthened.
