Details
In 1994 the 1992 Castle high values were reissued with a re-etched Queen's head. The 1992 head showed a pattern of horizontal and diagonal lines. The 1994 re-etched head shows a pattern of diagonal lines. Castle lines were also strengthened, making the castles look darker than the 1992 issue.
