AccuBANKER in the News:
The paper authentic money is printed on is normally made with 75%
cotton and 25% linen. This texture and color is very different than
normal paper, that is made with wood pulp and has high starch content.
Upon analyzing it, feel it, feel the texture and wrinkle it. Normal
paper tears easily unlike monetary paper. Upon wrinkling the bill
energetically, a distinct metallic sound is produced, unique to
monetary paper. Verify if the paper has color fibers that are incrusted
in the paper, not only printed on it which would be a sign of a
counterfeit.
Printing Quality:
The printing process for legitimate bills is highly sophisticated. The
printing is always clear, with lines that are very defined, and
distinct details of impeccable printing. The face and the eyes of the
portrait are of high definition. It is important to analyze the
visually the integrity of the bill and the general quality of
impression. Using a magnifying glass of magnifying power > 5X, make
sure that the lines that form the decorative edges of the bills are
continuous, and that the details are clear. Real bills should not have
any printing errors, while fake bills almost always do.
In the case of the US Dollar and an many other currencies the
governments mints use a printing with high relief known as Intaglio,
which produces a printing area with raised ink and can be easily
detected by only touching the front surface of the bills. Notice the
thick and raised ink. Generally counterfeiters do not possess this
prohibitively expensive printing technology.
