Ignored Late Finished Plates Empty Ignored Late Finished Plates

The recently discovered LFP 169 1934A series $10 FRN's from the BC, BD, and B star blocks are proving to be quite collecible and popular as well.

Around the time of the discovery of LFP 169, three other LFP's were discovered, and are seemingly ignored. 

$5 1934A

New York LFP 58
Philadelphia LFP 39
San Francisco LFP 52

These plates were all 1934 master bassos, altered into 1934A plates, below are the dates they were used from. 

$5 1934A (found on BB blocks, and possibly B star): Plate 58: November 1944 to October 1945
$10 1934A (found on BC, BD, and B star blocks): Plate 169: March 1944 to November 1944
$5 1934A ( found on C6xxxxxxxA to C71784000A, and possibly C star) Plate 39: November 1944 to January 1946
$5 1934A ( found on L8xxxxxxxA and possibly L star blocks) Plate 52: November 1944 to January 1945

So far, regarding the $5's, the New Yorks should be the most common. Philadelphia might be rarest, as FP 39 had one press run, in January of 1946. Compare this to the New York plates, which spent roughly nine months going through the press room. 

Strangely, there is not much data to be had on San Francisco LFP 52. I suspect that they would be as rare (or rarer) than the Philadelphia note. 

Regarding these three $5 LFP's, they can come in non mule format, or with mule BP 637. 

Finding one of these would be a major find, especially a mule or a star note.

Is the $10 1934A LFP 169 only found on Fr. 1702 or is it also found on the N. Africa (Fr. 2309) as well?

No...North Africa $10s are Silver Certificates, the New York LFP 169 is on a Federal Reserve Note. Totally different types.
