The suffix letter system used across this series was not a minor administrative quirk — each letter designated the issuing territory within the currency union, allowing the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank to track note distribution across eight jurisdictions sharing a single currency. The Grenada suffix G and Anguilla suffix U are among the more elusive, having circulated in smaller economies with lower demand. K. Dwight Venner replaced Sir Cecil Jacobs as Governor in 1989, so the transition between their signatures within the same series provides a rough dating tool for individual specimens.
