The title change on the final signature variant — from "Secretario de Estado del Tesoro y Crédito Público" to "Secretario de Estado de Finanzas" — reflects a reorganization of Trujillo-era ministerial nomenclature, not a change in personnel. Gómez and Álvarez Sánchez signed both variants, making the title the only distinguishing feature between the two and the primary point of interest for collectors working this series.
Serial numbering ran continuously across all six signature combinations, giving this issue one of the more methodically documented production runs in Dominican paper money of the period.
