1. Observe printing characteristics.

Real coins are carved by hand, printed in relief and intaglio, and have the characteristics of deep text, thick oil layer, thick handwriting and realistic head. Touching the words, numbers and images on the ticket face with hands has obvious concave-convex feeling. The machine-made counterfeit banknotes are mostly lithographic printing, with completely offset printing on the front, smooth feel, blurred lines and no concave-convex feeling.

2. Observe the color characteristics

Real money is printed with special ink, so the colors are bright and the lines are clear. The denomination number of optically variable ink changes with the viewing angle, and the color changes obviously. The horizontal numbers are black and the vertical numbers are blue. On the other hand, the color of counterfeit banknotes is dark and uneven, the drawings and tickets are blurred, the color change is irregular or has no color change effect, and the number color is different from the real banknotes.

3. Observe the characteristics of paper and banknotes

Real money paper is made of high-quality cotton linters and wood pulp, which has the characteristics of long fiber, high strength and durability, so it looks stiff and wear-resistant, feels thick and is not easy to break. In the process of papermaking, red and blue fibers are applied to pulp and distributed randomly. Counterfeit money is printed on ordinary paper, so the paper is soft and brittle, and it is easy to choose without toughness. Red and blue fibers are printed on the surface of the paper.

4. Observe the water seal

Real money with a face value above 5 yuan has a watermark. Looking through the light, the figure is clear, the portrait is vivid and lifelike, and the three-dimensional sense is very strong. But counterfeit money generally has no watermark, and some of them look similar in pattern, but they are not watermarked. No matter how these patterns are like water, they all disappear under the backlight, and the graphics are blurred and lack of three-dimensional sense. This is the main feature of identifying genuine and counterfeit money.

5. Observe the security and lines of offset microforms and characters.

Under the magnifying glass, the font of real money is clear, the magnetic microform is safe, the lines are embedded in the paper, and the instrument detects magnetism; The type of counterfeit money is vague, non-magnetic or unstable in magnetic characteristics.

6. Observe the complementary pattern of Yin and Yang.

Real coins: the front and back patterns overlap to form a complete pattern of ancient coins; Counterfeit money: the patterns on the front and back are misplaced.

7. In addition, it can also be identified by the size, width and whether the numbers of different banknotes are the same. In particular, there are braille (black dots) on paper money for blind people to identify, which has a sense of concavity and convexity, and the manufacturing process of fake paper money can not be done.
