Similitude

Likeness; resemblance. "In the similitude of" may be synonymous with forged or counterfeited. " Similar " may not be equivalent.' Since, in the act of 1877 against counterfeiting silver coins, the words " in resemblance or similitude " are a variation or exposition of the preceding words- "falsely make, forge, or counterfeit," each meaning to make something in the resemblance or similitude of another, the former expression may be omitted in an indictment.' See Counterfeit; Genuine; Trademark. Between articles subject to duty, see Duty, 2.
