Some tew Counterfeit Post-Notes of the

verrtl in circulation, and on tracing the fame
were found to come fiom the back parts of
Virginia, where they probably firft iflued ; to
avoid imposition it is thought neceflary to
give the following description of them, by
which they may readily be dete&ed.
They have the letter D, for their alphabeti
cal mark, at the left hand fide of the Note.
The paper on which they are printed is
more foftand tender, the strokes of the letters,
in the engravingare in general stronger, and
have a darker appearancc than in the bills.
The signature William Paiterfon, is badly
done, the strokes of the letters, are ftiff and
labored, and appear to be painted over with
the pen, as well as ihe flourifhingof ihe name.
The value is left blank in the engraving, to
be filled up in writing, Co the sum may be
more or less at pleasure.
No true Post-Notes of the alphabetical
mark, above deferibed, have been lately if
fucd, and very few are now in circulation.

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,
