By Dick Pintimento


Anyone can order personal checks direct from a commercial printer and save themselves a bundle. Personal checks arose from an interesting development historically. Throughout history there has been a necessityfor the transfer of value. Safer and reliable methods of transfer start thousands of years ago.

Checks are negotiable instruments that work as an order to transfer money. It identifies the sender and the receiver and specifies the amount of money negotiated. The parties involved may be corporations, LLC's or individual persons.

The history of the written check dates back to early Roman times. As early as 1 BC, checks have been used to solidify trades between parties. It eliminated the need to carry around large quantities of money. Convenience, safety and efficient trade spurred the popularity for these negotiable instruments called checks.

In ancient times as well as today, carrying around a large amount of cash can be very risky. Using the safety of a simple check or bill of exchange that could be redeemed for payment at a different location and time became a safe way of doing business.

Checks generally contain: 1. place of issue 2. identification check number 3. date of issue 4. payee 5. amount of currency 6. signature identification of the drawer and 7. routing number.

The routing number is a 9 digit number. The first 4 numbers indicate the Federal Reserve bank processing center.

This is followed by digits 5 through 8, identifying the specific bank served by that check -processing center. Digit 9 is a identification verification digit, computed using a complex algorithm of the previous 8 digits. The account number is assigned independently by the various banks.

Routing numbers, also known as transit numbers, consist of denominators and hyphenated numerators. They are in part an ABA indicator number that points to a city code for identification.
