The Universal Counterfeit and Altered Bank Note Detector, at Sight

A concise, practical manual that teaches a systematic, self-instructional method for identifying counterfeit and altered bank notes using seven illustrated rules. It focuses on close visual examination—including use of a magnifying lens—and on discerning differences in engraving quality and production techniques to separate genuine notes from imitations. Step-by-step checks and diagrams guide merchants, bankers, and clerks through routine inspection at the point of transaction. The pamphlet also includes endorsements and press notices that attest to the utility of the method and present it as a quick, learnable skill for everyday money-handling.
