The denomination is of TWENTY DOLLARS,- and the alphabetical mark ii the letter B. They may b< diftingpifhed frofti the ge« nuine by the following MARKS : The paper of the counterfeits is of a more render texture and glofley fur face than the genuine, and there is no water mark in them. The letter C. in the word Cashier, in he true bills is fl;rongiy marked, whereas in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfinifhed ltate. The letter a in the woid is badly formejj and the whole word ill done and there is no comma at theend of it, as there is in the genuine bills. The marginal device, is much darkef in the falfe, than in the genuine hills ow ing to the shade strokes being coarser, much '>earer together, and confequeutly much more numerous. This difference fh ikes the eye at firft view. The fame reward of ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, wilj be paid for apprehending, & prosecuting to conviction the several above described Offenders in re spelt to this, as to the last described bills.
