UNIVERSAL COUNTERFEIT DETECTOR, Applicable to all Banks in the United States.
Reading edition
The Steel-plate Illustrations contain standard specimens of all the different styles of engraving of the notes of all the Banks in the United States—six distinct kinds; four kinds of Engine-work, which is impossible to be imitated by hand. In counterfeits it is attempted, and this book explains the principle in such a manner as to enable any person to detect at sight, infallibly, any counterfeit or altered note.
