S. Rofen- crans, .Register of tho Treasury, and James IK. Hyatt, Treasurer of the United States. It Is well executed and Is likely to deceive even the experts at handling money. Tbe blue figures or treasury numbers arc clear cut and closely resemble those on the genu ine note. The portrait of Gen. Hancock Is well engraved, but tbe b.ilr and mous tache do not appear brushed as smoothly as In the genuIne;also,the star on the right shoulder Is imperfect. Tbe color of the seal is good, butjis a shade lighter than tho genuine. In the upper left and lower right corner in the figure "2" of the genuine are engrayed ln three places the word "two," Under a good microscope It will be observed that in tho ball of tho "2" on the counter felt the letters "owl" are engraved, but this defect would not be discovered except by tbe aid of a good glass. In the word "United," in tho treasury of the United States, under the signature of James W. Hyatt, the "1" and "t" extend a httlo bo low the other letters. An attempt bas been made to Imitate the silk fibre by drawing fino blue lines through the body of this counterfeit. Tbe back ot this countrrfelt is exceedingly well executed.
