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.
