The Public are cautioned to
be<ware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills cf
the Bank of the United States, and Twenty {■
Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America, I
several of <wbich have appeared in circulation ,
within a few days pajl; they are a good ge
neral imitation of the genuine Bills, but may
be dijlinguifhed by the following
marks.
Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the
United States. t
ALL that have appeared have the letter F. \
for their Alphabetical Mark. r
The Texture of the Paper is thicker and a
whiter knd it takes the iok more freely than
the genuine paper. c
The O. in the Word Company is smaller
than theM. and other letters of that word,
so that a line extended from the top of the O,
to tbuch the top of the M. would extend cou
fi'dcrably above the range of the whole word.
In the word United the letters are narrow- 4
erand closer together than thv reft of the bill
The t and fiu the word promise are not (
parallel, the yinclining much moie forward
than the i.
The engraving is badly executed,the strokes j
of all the Letters are stronger and the device
in the margin pafticularly isrm'uch coailer 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
ber, and no five dollar bills were iflued in
jhat 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 couuterfeit Five Dollar Notes
above described ; the engraving is bettei exe
wcted, and they approach neaier to the ap
pearance of tne genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Tu.cn
tvy in the iJhdy of the bill, are in number thir
teen in the gen dine blls, and but twelve in
the counterfeit*.
The word Company is much like the fame
word in the Five-Dollar Bills as defer ibed a
bove, the 0 being leis tlian .the 7/2, and others
following.
There is no stroke to the t 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 come down to
the line, but are <0 cut as to give an irregular
appearance to the word, the Tw and go
ing below'them.
The fignaiurc J Nixon, has the appear
ance of being written with lamb-black aod
oil, and differs from other inks used in
printing the bills and the cafliier's signature;
It is supposed these forgeries were committed
in some of the Southern States, as all the coun
terfeits thai jiave. appeared, have come Irom
thence, and two peiions have been apprehend
ed in Virginia, on suspicion ot being the author
of them.
The reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS
will be <paid to any PeHon or Pcifons w4io-ftva!l
discover and profecute-tactmviftion the several
offenders of the following.defenptions or any
'of them, viz.
The perfori or pcrfons, who manufa&ured
the paper on which the Bills are printed.
•The pei sou or peifons* who engraved the
plates.
The printer or printers, of the bills.
Every person who hasa&ed as a principal in
any other way, in the couttterleii-ing and utter
ing the said bills.
Philadelphia, 28, 1794
■April 22, 77.94,
' 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 £.
They may be distinguished from the genu
ine by the foMowiirg IVI'A PiKS :
The paper of the counterfeits is of a more
e tender texture and glofley furface than the
D genuine, and there is no water mark in them.
Tke letter C. in the-word Calhier f in the
S true bills isftrongly marked, whereas in the
counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair
e stroke, evidently in.an unfiniilied llate. .The
letters in the word demand, is badly lormtd
and the whole woid iTI done, and there is no
comma at the eud of it, as there is in the
genuine bills.
>• The marginal device, is much daiker in
g the falfe, than in the genuine bills owing to
n the fhadfc strokes being coarser, much nearer
f together,:and ronfequently much mote tiu
-- merous. difference fti ikes the eye at fir it
view.
The fame reward of ONE THOUSAND
j, DOLLARS, will be paid for &:
a prrtfecutjng to convi<stion the several above
described Oifenders in lefpedt to this, as to
1- the last described bills.
