In U.S. banknotes, the letters on the serial numbers indicate the Federal Reserve Bank that issued the note. There are 12 Federal Reserve Banks, each represented by a letter: A for Boston, B for New York, C for Philadelphia, D for Cleveland, E for Richmond, F for Atlanta, G for Chicago, H for St. Louis, I for Minneapolis, J for Kansas City, K for Dallas, and L for San Francisco. Each letter corresponds to a specific district, with "A" representing the 1st district and "L" the 12th.

Until recent redesigns of currency US bills that were "Federal Reserve Notes" (almost all bills printed) had a single large letter between A and L, which identified one of the twelve regional branches of the Federal Reserve Bank. (for example, notes with the letter "D" were issued from the Federal Reserve Bank in Cleveland, OH) New designs for most US bills omit these letters. They remain only on one-dollar bills.
Most of the 16-sheet districts sell for about $170. The 'I', 'G' and 'J' districts are much higher, as there were fewer produced.
Assuming you are referring to seal letters, these are A through L and correspond to the 12 Federal Reserve Districts through which currency is distributed.

Federal Reserve Notes are obligations of the Federal Reserve System, the US central bank. The "Fed" is technically independent of the government so these bills are backed by the faith and credit of the bank rather than the US itself. United States Notes were obligations of the federal government itself. Like Federal Reserve Notes they are "fiat" money, but are backed by the faith and credit of the government rather than the central bank. In practice the two forms of currency were effectively interchangeable, so in the later 1960s the government stopped printing US Notes. Since then all US paper money has been issued through the Federal Reserve System. Starting with the 1928 series, both types of bills used almost identical designs. The most obvious difference is that US Notes had red seals and serial numbers while Federal Reserve Notes use the familiar green color. Also, Federal Reserve Notes have an indication (number and/or letter) of which Fed district distributed them. That feature was absent on US Notes because they weren't associated with any Fed districts.
There are eight US Congressional Districts.

Without trying to sound snarky, the answer is yes, no, maybe. In general, Federal Reserve Notes are more common than US Notes but comparative values depend on the specific bills' dates, series letters, denominations, and conditions.
