The Public are cautioned to
bewa/e of crwUatVitedrive Dollar Bills of
the ijaiik of ibe United States, and Twenty
Dollar ft 'Us, of the, Bank (f North America,
fiverrJ of which jjfi've appealed in circulation
'within a fekv days pafl; they are a good ge
i neral imitation of the genuine Bills y but may
I be dyitngui/hed by the follo wing
MARK S.
Fihje Dollar DHL of the Bank of the
IJnited States.
ALL that have appeared have the letter F.
for their Alphabetical Mark.
The' Texture of the Paper is thicker and
whiter and it takes the ink more freely than
the genuine paper.
The O. in the word Company is smaller
than the M* and other letters of that word,
so that a line extended from the top of the O,
to touch the top of the M. would extend con
fiderabJy above the range of the whole word.
In the word United the letters are narrow
erand closer together than th? reft of the bill
The i and fin the word promise are not
parallel, the much more forward
than the j.
The engraving is badly executed,the strokes
of all the Letters are stronger and the device
in the margin particularly is much coarser and
appears darker than in the true bills. Some
ot the counterfeits bear date in 1791— Where
as the Bank was not in operation till Decern
her, and no five dollar bills were iffiied in
ihat year.
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
America.
ALL that have appeared have the letter
B. for their alphabetical mark.
They are printed on a paper nearly similar
| to that of the counterfeit Five Dollar Notes
above described ; the engraving is better exe
ucted, and they approach nearer to the ap
pearance cf the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Twen
ty, in the body of the bill, are in number thir
teen in the genuine b lis, and but twelve in
tl»e counterfeits.
The wo id Company is much like the fame
word »n the Five Dollar B lis as described a
bove, the 0 being less than the m, and others
following-.
There is no ftrgke to the t in the word North
whereat in the genuine bills the stroke is well
defined.
The letters rnt in the word Twenty, to the
iefrjiawd at the bottom, do not come down to
the iine, but are so cut as to give an irregular
a pearanee to the word, the Tw and tney go
'ing below them.
The signature 1 Nixon, has the appear
ance of being written with lawib-M»< k and
01, and differs from other inks tifed in
printing the bills and the calhier's (igoafure.
It is supposed these forgeries were committed
in some of the Southern States, as all the coun
terfeits thai have appeared, have come Worn
thence, and two persons have been apprehend
ed in Virginia, on suspicion of being the author
of tliem.
The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
will be paid to any Person or Persons who (hall
discover and profccutc to convi&.ion the several
dflfehders oif the following or any
of them, viz.
The person or persons, who manufactured
the paper on which Bills are printed.
The person or persons, who engraved the
plates.
The printer or printers, «f the bills. '
Every person who has a&ed as a principal in
any other ways in the counterfeiting and utter
ing the said bills.
Philadelphia, March 28, i/94
April 22, 1754,
Other counterfeit bills
of the Bank of the United States have appeared
in circulation.
The denomination is of TWENTY DOL
LARS,and the alphabetical maik is the let
ter B.
They may be diftingnifhed from the genu
ine by the following MARKS :
The paper of the-counterfeits is of a more
tender texture and glofley fnrf&ce than tke
genuine, and there is no water mark in them.
The letter C. in the word Cashier, in the
true bills is ftrorigly marked, whereas in the
counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair
flroke, evidently in an unfinifhed state. The
letter a in the wodemand, is badly formed
and the whole word ill done, and there is no
comma at the end of it, as there is in the
genuine bills.
The marginal device, is much darker in
the lalfe, than in the genuine bills oWiug to
the fliade strokes being coarser, much nearer
together, and consequently much more nu- !
merous. This difference strikes the eye atfirft
view.
The fame reward of ONE THOUSAND
DOLLARS, will be paid for appiehending, &
prosecuting to convnftf on the several above
described Offenders in tefpelt to' this, as to
the last described bills.
