FYI, since none of those you posted seem to be here to answer, banks will have copies in triplicate. The original, the customer copy & the bank copy. The pre-printed parts will sometimes have different info on them (e.g., the customer copy will say "customer copy", the bank copy will say... well, you get the picture). And obviously the bank copy will likely have a watermark while the carbon copies below will not. So no, the original & the customer copy are not exactly copies. Funny, huh? Ask your own bank to take a let you take a look at their cashier's checks when you get a chance.

This is funny.......Over at DU (lounge) they are doing their usual posting pictures of themselves. Now why in the world are these ladies, in these times, putting their image out there on the internet???

You can bet if one of those pictures ends up on FR though......squeals galore.

I understand that. What I was questioning is the fact that the "typing" ie: spacing, letters, format, etc. are totally different. They are not the same. If they were copies, then for example, why are there more ****** (stars) on one check then the other? Why are one of the dates typed slightly higher than the other? There's more, but I think you know where I'm getting at.
