Charleston Voice: Death Penalty for Debasing Currency: US Coinage Act of 1792
If you write on a bill and get caught you could be arrested. A bill,with writing on it, is not actually legal tender, as it has been ' spoiled. ' Nor is a damaged bill, without the numbers.
In order to stop people doing half now, half later deals, by cutting the notes, the number is only on one side. So make sure that you get that bit! they can be exchanged but questions would be asked.
