Which auctions share a high or a low?Equal as printed

Two auctions share a value when it prints the same: a ratio to two places, a rate to three, a share to one decimal, an amount to the dollar.

What do the figures leave out, and how are they cited?Limits, dates and how to cite

Auctions of exactly twenty-five million dollars, taken only by primary dealers, are left out of these comparisons.

The amount offered is compared across new issues and reopenings here: this page lists the largest and smallest amounts, not a run of like with like. Single auctions have their own pages where Treasury published the bidder amounts; a bill auction has none.
