A breakdown of this series by date of production is not presently available. According to BEP records, notes of this series were delivered to the Treasury between September 1957 and March 1961.
The table below shows the serial number ranges produced for the regular and star notes in this series. All complete blocks of regular notes run from 00000001 to 99999999, with the 100,000,000th note replaced by a star note; star notes do not use serial numbers above 99840000. Notice that gaps of 160,000 serials occur frequently in the star notes; these are due to the print runs of mixed regular and star notes that are necessary to complete each block of regular notes (since 100,000,000 notes equals 156.25 print runs of 640,000 notes each).

There should be twenty-six additional 160,000-serial gaps in the numbering of the star notes in this series, corresponding to the twenty-six completed blocks of regular notes; but I do not currently have information on where these gaps fall.
Many (likely all) of the notes with serials G 554 40001 A through G 554 60000 A are mismatched serial errors: In the right-hand serial number, the second digit '5' is replaced by a '4'.
Many (likely all) of the notes with serials Q 637 20001 A through Q 637 40000 A are mismatched prefix errors: The 'Q' in the left-hand serial number is replaced by an 'A'.
