Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of tbt United States. ALL that have appeared have the letter F. for their /flphabetical Mark. The Texture of" the Paper is thicker and whiter and it takes the ink more freely than the genuine paper. The O. in the word Company is smaller than the M. and other letters of that word so that a line extended from ih* top of ihe O, to touch the top of the M. would extend considerably above the range of the whole word. In the word United the letters are nar. rower and closer together than the test 0 f the-bill. The : and /in the word prcmife are not parallel, the/inclining much more lorwa>4 than the i. The engraving is badly executed, the strokes of all the Letlers are Ibongei' and the devi e in theinargin particularly ismuch coaifer and appears darker than in ihetrue bills.
