The Public are cautioned to beware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the,- United States, and Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America, federal of which have appeared in circulation 'within a few days pafi ; they are a good ge neral imitation of the genuine Bills, but may be diflinguijhed by the following MARKS. Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the United 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 p&per. 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 fide! ably above the range of the whole word. In the word United the letters are narrow erand closer together than the reft of the bill The i and fln the word promise are not parallel, the yinclining much more forward than the /. The engraving is badly execu?ed,the stroke* of all the Letters are stronger and the devi e, in themargi/i particularly is much coarfcr and appeals darker'ihan in the true bills. Some ol the counterfeits bear date in 1791—Where as th© Bank was not in operation 'till Decern ber, and no five dollar bills were lffued in lhat year. Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America. ALL that have appeared have the letter B toi their alphabetical mark. They are printed 00 a paper neaily similar to that of the couuterfeit Five Dollar Notes above described ; the engraving is bettei exe ucted, and they approach nearer to the ap pearance of the genuine bills. The fine ruled lines through the word Twen ty, ii] tlve body of tlic bill, are in number th r teen \n the genuine bills, and but twelve in the countei feits. The word Company is touch like the fame word in the Five Dollar Bills as defer ibed a bove, the a being less than the /n, and others folio vying. There is no stroke to the / in the word North whereas in the genuine bills the stroke is well defined. The letters ent in the word Twenty, to the left hand at the bottom, do not couie down to the line, but are so cut as to give an irregular appearance to the word, the Tw and the>- go ing below them. The signature ]. Nixon, has the appear ance ot being written with lamb-black and oil, and ditiers from other inks uied in printing the bills and the calhier's iignature. It is iuppoled thcie forgeries were commuted in iomeot the Southern States, as all the eouo* terleits thac have appeared, have come from thence, and two periods have been appieheud* ed in Virginia, on suspicion of being the author of' thern. The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS will be paid to any Per ion or Persons who Hi ail discover and piolecute to convi&ipn tl e teveral offenders of ihe following defcript|ons or any qf them, viz. The pei (on or persons, who. the paper on which the Bills arc primed. j The perfou or who engraved the plates. The printer or printers, »f the bills. Every period who has a&ed as a principal in a>jy othci way, 111 the counterfeiting and utter ing iiie (aid bills. Philadelphia* 28, 1794 April 22, 1794, Other counterfeit bills of the Bank ot the United States have appeared in circulation. The denomination is of TWENTY DOL LAJiS,and the alphabetical maik is the let ter B. They may be drflinguiihed from the genu ine by the following MAKKS : The paper of (he counteifeits is of a mort tendn texture and gloifpy lurface than ikt genuine, and there is no water.mark in them. The letter C. ia the word Cafliier, in the true bills, is ftrongfy marked-, whereas in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfinifhed ft ate. The letter a in the wotd demand,, is biadly formed and the whole 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 falfe, than in the genuine bills owing, to the shade strokes being coarser, much nearer together, and conlequently much more nu merous. This d.fference ftrike&the eye at fir ft view. The fame reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, will be paid for apprehending, & prosecuting to convi&ion the above I defcnbejl Offenders in refpeft to this, as to the last bills.
