I'm not sure, but sometimes the paper inserts had a date on them, so you might want to check that if you haven't already.

They both appear to be black ink on both bill and belly. As such, they would have been the kind in my Dad's tackle box - so late 50s to late 60s is my estimate.
In general, the black ink on both bill and belly with star foil are the earliest sold in US. Only in Gold and Silver. Then black ink on both bill and belly without star foil like these, in Gold, Silver, and Blue. Then the Finland Stamped bill - these were the ones from when I was a kid, 70s until probably 1989 or so. Then the Ireland Stamped bill, until sometime in the 2000s. After that, I can't keep up with 'em.
The F5s are a totally different story as I haven't figured out all the different Bill, belly markings that co-inside with the same general time period as the tail end of these into the Finland stamped bill era.
