12 FEDERAL RESERVE BANK (y3) OF NEW YORK January 13, To Member Banks in the Second Federal Reserve District and Others Concerned: NEW COUNTERFEIT Circular letter No, 699, dated January 12, 1938, of the Treasury Secret Service Division, describes a certain new counterfeit as follows: $5 UNITED STATES NOTE Series of 1928 B; check letter "A"; face plate No. 214; back plate No. 784; W. A. Julian, Treasurer of the United States; Henry Morgenthau, Jr., Secretary of the Treasury; portrait of Lincoln, This is a fairly deceptive production printed on one sheet of bond paper from photo-etched plates. The Treasury seal, printed in red, is crudely executed and the motto barely discernible, while the fine points enclosing the outer circle are rounded and misshaped. The serial numbering, also in red, is heavily printed, and all specimens to date show B A.. Care should be exercised in handling notes of this variety and denomination, as this counterfeit will deceive the unwary. The Treasury Department has requested that any counterfeits which come to the attention of banks or others be forwarded with all available information to the office of the United States Secret Service having jurisdiction in their territory. Offices of the Secret Service are located in Albany, Buffalo, Syracuse and New York City, New York, and in Newark, New Jersey. George L. Harrison, ^resident
