Hasn’t it occured to you that the money making people might’ve used a font that’s not simply available as a commercial typeface. Yaknow, like, to make forging money a little harder. ;^)

Dude, you wouldn’t know what we’ve been asked to identify in the past: type on passports, identity cards from various countries, bank cheques, credit cards, all kinds of serial numbers... It does leave you wondering what all these people need that information for. You’ll have to excuse us for getting a little suspicious whenever we get such a request. Especially when the person requesting that infomation decides to stay anonymous and signs up as “zzzz”... No offense. :^)
Today it was announced by the Bush administration that it will continue to spy on Americans that they thought might be associated with terrorist origanizations. If they thought you were trying to forge money they might just throw you in jail as a terrorist sympothizer.
You are right Hrant it could be any hidey-hole in the world and they would throw away the key. This is about getting anyone aganinst the administration policy to run and hide knowing they will be spied upon.

The exact font is probably not all that easy to come by, but it’s certainly in the tradition of “crash numbering”. Psy/ops has a good revival:

It probably comes from a machine that doesn’t use digital type, but Letter Gothic is close.
