Bureau of Engraving and Printing Police  

Définition

  • The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) was created July 11, 1862, as part of the Treasury Department, although it was not until October 1, 1887, that the production of all U.S. paper currency and government securities was centralized in one facility. Among the bureau's responsibilities are the design, printing, and finishing of the country's paper currency, many postage stamps, Treasury notes, and other securities and certificates.
