In the early days of British rule, it is easy to print money because many of the printing press money in circulation and mold design is not too complicated as it is now.
But it was so easy, counterfeiters can also print your own. How does the government was to provide strong threat to the counterfeiters? By printing "To Counterfeit is Death" or the death penalty for counterfeiting. Looks like instead of "In God We Trust" more suitable "In The Death Penalty We Trust".
