Hoping someone can help me with some US $1 print run identification.

Series 1995 Atlanta (F) $1 star notes had a print run that was accidentally partially duplicated by the following run.

Print run F 09 600 001 * - F 11 136 000 * of 1,536,000 notes was printed around 08/96
A subsequent run of 384,000 notes was supposed to be printed starting at F 11 136 001 *.
Instead the run was erroneously started at F 09 856 001 * resulting in the run going out as F 09 856 001 * - F 10 240 000 *, duplicating 384,000 serial numbers of the previous run.

Does anyone know of a definitive way to identify from which run notes are in the duplicated range? Face plates seems like the most obvious, but I don't have enough notes to establish a pattern to call it definitive. Just gut instinct, based on two notes, one I had and one I just got based on that gut instinct.

The two notes below are 43,969 apart in serials, but have faceplates 114 and 217. My gut tells me those are separate runs given how far apart the faceplates are for only a 43K serial separation.
FWIW backplates are 357 and 378 respectively, so also pretty far apart of two notes so close together.

But does anyone have a source for a definitive on that?
Or (no offense, love you guys! ) a forum more specifically geared toward modern US banknotes?

Just picked this one up too.

10344103 is a first run based on the range, no debate.

Face plate 187, Back plate 359 is thus established for first run.

The previous note posted above with 10140540 serial has a face plate 217 WAY higher than 187, but on a serial WAY lower than this note from first run. Same for pack plates.

Pretty sure that's a lock to say 10140540 is second run, establishing FP 217 and BP 378 as second run, yes?

Banner evening! Found this one too (not buying, I think I've got what I need at this point, not hoarding to hold out for a matched pair, but def. bookmarking the auction lol!)

For the record, also a first run note by serial.
Front plate 205, Back plate 355 also established for first run.
Same pattern of lower plate numbers on the first run than the second.

So, as I see it (can anyone confirm with source, or then corroborate the logic):
F 09 600 001 * - F 11 136 000 * Face Plate No.s 114, 187, 205 &?
F 09 856 001 * F 10 240 000 * Face Plate No.s 217 &?

Bump

Feels like I've got it figured out.
Anyone can confirm, or have a source that can?
