Money Management Coins may be identified using the size and the edge of the coin. For example, a nickel is smaller and has a smooth edge and a quarter is larger and has a rough edge. Paper money may be identified by folding it different ways based on denomination. Raised line checks are available from most banks. Although slightly larger in size, the appearance and format of these checks are identical to a regular check.
Banks also provide check registers in large print.
An alternative to raised line or large print checks is a check-writing template, cut from a piece of firm plastic or cardboard, which fits over a regular check. A signature guide is a piece of firm plastic, thin cardboard or other device with a centered rectangular cutout. Telephone Use Free Directory Assistance is available.
