Up till 1974, a letter was added to a bill's series date every time a new Treasury Secretary or US Treasurer took office. The first bills in a series date are always "plain"; i.e. they don't have a letter, so "A" means that the bill carries the secondcombination of Treasurer/Secretary signatures. "B" would indicate the third combination, etc.For 1957 US $1 bills the officials were:Plain - Treasury Secretary Robert Anderson and Treasurer Ivy Baker Priest"A" - C. Douglas Dillon and Elizabeth Rudel Smith"B" - C. Douglas Dillon and Kathryn O'Hay GranahanIn 1974 the Treasury altered the criteria for changing series dates and letters.
