Genuine examples of all of these notes exist in quantity but when compared side by side with lithographic copies, the fakes lack definition and sharpness. A good place to see this difference is in the imprint, sharp and well formed letters on genuine notes, shaky, irregular letters on the copies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
