Yeah, I thought I might have occasionally seen a red one! Hawaiian
money was not likely to turn up in NYC, especially more than a decade
later!

As I mentioned before, I did run across one in 1954.

I remember seeing a Federal Reserve note that was printed in Honolulu.
It was the only time that I have ever seen one.

? Is currency printed anywhere but the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing in Washington, DC?

There are 12 varieties of FRN, one for each of the 12 Federal Reserve
Banks, which differ only in the letter at the beginning of the serial
number and carrying the name and number of the Bank that issued it.
Boston is #1, New York is #2, etc. It doesn't seem likely that a FRB
was placed in Hawaii, a mere territory, when the system was invented
in 1916. Isn't #12 San Francisco?

IIRC, the Federal Reserve seal had the letter I and the words Honolulu,
Hawai'i. It was not military scrip of any sort and had no special
colours on it.
