beware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills of
the Bank of the United States, and Twenty
Dollar Bills of the Bartk of North America,
federal of <wbich have appeared in circulation
kuithin a fe<w days pajl; thej Ore a good ge
neral imitation of tjje genuine Bills, but may \
be dijlinguijhei by the following
MARKS.
Five Dollar Bills of the Bank <jf 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 paper.
The O. in ihe word Company is smaller
than the M. and other letters of that word,
i"o that a line extended from the top of the O,
■ to touch llie top of the iCI. would extend con
siderably 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 fin the word proniife are not
•parallel, the/inclining much more forward
than the i.
The engraving is badly execuied,the strokes
of all the Letters are ft longer and the device
in themargin particularly ismuch coarser and
appears darker thin in the true bills. Sonje
ot the counterfeits bear date in ijgi—Wheie
as the Bank was not in operation till Decern
ber, and no, Ave dollar bills were ifl'ued in
, ihat year.
Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
Anterica.
ALL that have appeared have the letter
18. 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 bcitei exe
ucted, and they approach neaier to the ap
pearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Twen
ty, in the body of ihc bill, are m number thir
teen in the genuine bills, and but iwejve in
the counterfeits.
The word Company is much like the fame
word in the Five Dollar Bills as defer ibed a
bove, the o being less than them, 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 tnt in the word Twenty, to the
jleft hand at the bottom, do riot couie down to
the line, but are to cut as to give an irregular
appearance to the word, the Tut and go
ing below theiri.
The lignature Nixon, has the appear
ance ol being written with lamb-black and
oil, and dlfie/s Irom other inks ulcd in
printing the bills and the cafliiei's lignatuie.
It is iuppol'ed toigeries were committed
ill some of the Southern States, as all the coun
terfeits that have appeared, have come from
thence, and two perlons have been appichend
ed in Virginia, on suspicion of being the author
of them.
> The reward of ON£ THOUSAND DOLLARS
will be paid to any Person or Pfcrfons who thai I
difcovei and prosecute to conviction the feveial
offenders ot the following descriptions or any
of them, viz.
The person or pcyfpns, who manufactured
the paper on which the Bills are printed.
The person or petfons, who engraved the
plates.
The printer Urprinters, of the bills.
Every person who has acted as a principal in
any other way, in the counterfeiting and utter
