An ex? pert only could detect any difference between tin- paper on which the notes ate printed ami the genuine article. Tin- printing would also be thought perfect by many, although Captain Wright detected flaws in the portraits of Lincoln and Grant which adorn the note. lie also found by measurement that the counterfeit is slightly shorter and narrower than the genuine. It is said that the countofelt was made by means ot photography and Captain Wright says it is one of the boot he OVO? saw.
