*“Printing/ Issue year” - this number is equal to numerical difference between the year that a note of a certain denomination was printed and the year that this denomination of note was first ever printed.  All notes issued/ printed in the same year that the note's denomination came out will have a value of zero in this position.  The year that any note was actually printed can always be established by determining the first year that any note of that denomnination was issued and adding the value of this piece of serial information to that year.  This number takes no account of the serial style value, which is independent of it.  A 20 ice mark note printed in 2020 will have a value of 2 (the first year of printing of any note of this denonination having been 2018).

*“Serial number” - this six-digit number is unique to each banknote for a given denonination, serial style, and printing/ issue year.  Should all six digits be used up or otherwise become designated as unavailable, a suffix letter may be added to this number to indicate an additional banknote with that same six digit numerical code (and of the same denomination, and the same style, and with the same year of issue) has also been printed and to differentiate it from that note.  The following letters are never used in any part of the serial information of any Westarctican banknote because of their superficial resemblance to Arabic numerals: the letters '''O''', '''I''', '''S''', and '''Z'''.

*“Series code/ letter” - this is an arbitrary single-character alphabetic code to indicate a minor variation in note format for a given denomination with a given overall style and with the same printing year.  It is unrelated by the bill’s serial number, though some serial codes may only correspond historically to certain serial numbers.  All banknotes will bear a series code, even if the serial year and printing year had no minor variations.
