MARKS.
Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the
United States.
ALL that have appeared havs the letter
F. for their Alphabetical Mark.
The Texture of the Paper is thick, r and
whiter and it takes the ink niore freely
than the genuine pape.r.
The 0.111 the word Company is fnialler
than the M. and other letters of that word
so that a line extended from the top of the
O, to touch the top of the M. would extend
considerably above the range of the whole
word.
I:i the word United the letters are nar
rower and closer together than the reft of
the bill.
The i and /in the word promise are not
parallel* the /inclining much more lorwaj d
than the i.
The engraving is badly cxecuied, the
strokes of all the Letters are (Ironger and
the devi< e in tliemargin particularly ismuth
coaifcr and Appears darker than in the true
bills. Sumc ol the counterfeits bear date in
I 791— Whereas the Bank was not in opera,
tion till December, and no five dollar bills
were ilTued 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 simi
lar to that of the counterfeit Five Dollar
Notes above defcr:bed; the engraving i»
Utftei execut% \ y and they approach nearer
to the appearance of" the genuine bill
The fine ruled lines through the word
Twenty, in the-body ot the bill, are in num
ber th rleen in the genuine b lis, and but
twelve in the countufeits.
The Weird Company is much like the fame
word in tiic Five Dollar bitta deicribed
above, the o being, less than the m, and o m
thers following*
There is no stroke to the / in the word
North wheels in the genuine bills theftroke
is well defined.
T.'ie letters ent in the word Twenty, to
the left hand at the bottom, do not come
down to the line, but are so cut as to give
an irregular appearance to the word, the
Tw and they going below them.
The signature } Nikon, has the appear
ance ot being written with lanih-ulack and
oil, and difteis Irom other inks ni< din
priming th bills and the cafhiei's ligna
ture.
It is supposed these forgeries were commit
ted in Southern States, as all the
counterfeits thai have appeared, have come
from 1 hence, ♦nd two persons been ap-
P'efTended in Virginia, on suspicion ot being
the author of them.

They may be distinguished from the gc*

The paper of the counterfeits is of a
more tender texture and glofley lurf'ace
than the genuine, and there is no wat«*'
HMrk in them.
The letter C. in the word Cafh'er, in

in the counterfeit l ;, the whole letter if ft
fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfniflitii
state. The letter a in the woid demand,
is badly formed and the whole word ill
and there is no comma at the end of it, as
there is in the genuine hills.
1 he marginal device, is much darker
