AJLL 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 the word Cbmpany is smaller
than the M. and other letters of that word,
so that a line extended from ihe top of ihe
O, to touch the top of the M. would extend
confiderabJy above the range of the whole
word.
In the word Un.ted the letters are nar.
rower andclofer together than the test of
the bill.
The i and f in the word promise are not
parallel, the yinclinifig much more forward
I than the i. ~
The engraving is badly executed, the
ftiokesof all the Letters are stronger and
the dev'n e in themargjr particularly ismuch
coaifer and appears darker than in the true
bills. Some of the counterfeits bear date iq
1791— Whereas the Bank was not in opera

were ilfueo in jhat year.

thers following.
' There is no flrolce to the t in the word
e North whereas in the genuine bills theftroke
is well defined.

the left hand at the bottom, do not conie
II down to the lirey but are so cut as to give
an irregular appearance to the word, the
