The bonds, or each series thereof, shall be dated and numbered consecutively and shall be signed by the chairperson or vice chairperson of the district and the auditor-controller of the district, and the official seal, if any, of the district shall be attached.

The interest coupons of the bonds shall be signed by the auditor-controller of the district. All of the signatures and seal may be printed, lithographed, or mechanically reproduced.
