June 9 The Public are cautioned to beware of counterfeited Five Dollar Bills of the Bank of the United States, and Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America,feueral of 'which hirve appeared in circulation 'within a few days pafl; they are good general imitation of the genuine Bills, but may be diflingui/hed by the fol owing MARKS. Five Dollar Bills of the Bank cf the United States'. ALL 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 Company is smaller than the M. and other letters of that word, so that a line extended from the top of the O, to touch the ti-p of the M. woulclcxtend confidtrably above the range of the whole word. In the word United the letters are nar rower and closer together than the reft of the bill. The i and fin the word promise are not parallel, the /inclining much more forward than the I. The engraving is badly executed, the strokes of all the Letters are ftrongerand the device in themargin particularly ismuch coarfcr and appears darker than in thetrue fills. Some of the counterfeits bear date in 1791—Whereas tha Bank was not in opera tion till -December, and no five dollar bills were iflued in ihat year. Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North America. ALL that have appeared hav« the letter B. tor their alphabetical mark. They arc printed on a paper nearly simi lar to that ot the counterfeit Five Dollar Notes above defcribedj the, engraving is better executed, and they approach nearer to the appearance of the genuine bills. The fine ruled lines through the word in the body of the bill, are in num ber thrteen in the genuipe bills, and but twelve in the counterfeits, The word Company is much like the fame word in"the Five Doiiar Bills as described above, the o being lei's than the to, and o thers following. There is no stroke to the / inthe word North whereas in the genuine bills theftroke is well defined. The letters cnt ip the word to tbeleft hand at the bottom, do not conic down to the line, but are so cut as to give an irregular appearance to the word, the Tw and going below them. The Ggnature 1 Nixon, has the appear ance of being written with lamb-black and oil, and differs Irom other inks used in printing th bills and tiie cafliicr's signa ture. It is supposed these forgeries were commit ted in some of the Southern States, as all the counterfeits thai have appeared, have come from ihence, and two persons have been ap prehended in Virginia, on suspicion of being ,the author of them. The reward of ONE THOUSAND OOL. LARS will be pa'd toany PCifon or Perfotif who lhall (Qfcover and profccute to convic tion several offenders of the following descriptions or any of them, viz. The person or persons, who m»nufaflur» ed the paper on which the Bills are printed. The per fori or perfoni, who engraved' the plates. The printer orprinters, of the bills. Every person who has a&ed as a principal «n any other way, in the counterfeiting and uttering the said bills. Philadelphia, March 28, 1794 April 22, 1794, Other counterfeit bills of the Bank of the United States have ap peared in circulation. The denomination is of TWENTY DOLLARS, and the alphabetical mark is the letter R. They may be diftinguiflied from the ge» nuine by the following MARKS : The paper of the counterfeits is of a more tender texture and glolTey furiace jthan the genuine, and there is 110 water mark in them. The letter C. in the word Caihier, in he true bills is strongly marked, uheieas in the counterfeits, the whole letter is a fine hair stroke, evidently in an unfinilhed state. The letter <7 in the word demand, is badly formed and the whole word ill done and there is no comma attheend oi it, as there is in the genuine bills. The marginal device, is much darker in the falfe, than in the genuine bills ow ing to the ihade ftroJces being coarser, much nearer together, and con/eqnently much more numerous. This difference strikes the eye atfirft view. The fame reward of QNE THOUSAND DOLLARS, will be paid for ap&rehendinp. & prosecuting to convi&io" several above described Offenders in re (pelt to this, as to the last defcrihed bills.
