Summary: This letter confirms previous correspondence regarding the engraving instructions for lower value dies (50, 40, 20, and 10 centavos) for banknote or stamp production. It discusses confusion over the correct values to be impressed on half sheets and references communication with Mr Etheridge and Mr Bayan. The sender states they will proceed with engraving as clarified and expects to have dies and watermarked paper ready by early July.
