Definitions

  • the invention relates to a value document, in particular a banknote, having a value document substrate and at least two different feature substances for checking the value document.
  • the value document contains a machine authenticated low security feature formed of a single material.
  • the low security feature returns a yes / no answer indicating the presence or absence of the queried property.
  • the low security feature is used for authenticity testing in applications where a simple detector is used, such as in retail outlets.
  • Another high-security feature which can also be authenticated by machine, has difficult-to-prove properties and enables a more in-depth query of the value document as well as authentication at a much higher level. Examination of the high security feature is complex and takes place, for example, in central banks.
  • This high-security feature is a homogeneous mixture of two substances with different physical properties, such as the excitation wavelength for luminescence emission or coercivity, etc.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a generic value document which, in addition to increased counterfeit security, also includes a possibility of value recognition.
  • value recognition is understood to mean the evaluation of encoded information for a specific user group.
  • the encoded information may, for example, represent the denomination, the currency, the series, the issuing country or other features of the banknote in a banknote.
  • the publication DE-A-10204870 is a document of value according to the preamble of claim 1 can be removed.
  • the value document according to the invention has a first and a second feature substance, which are incorporated or incorporated into the value-document substrate in the form of mutually independent codings. As explained in detail below, this combination creates a complex feature system that is very difficult to adjust for a counterfeiter.
  • the feature system allows users from different user groups to perform both an authenticity check and a value recognition on the document.
  • the feature substances used by the various user groups or their characteristic properties are completely separated from each other.
  • users of a user group can use a characteristic property of the first feature substance for the authenticity check and the coding formed by the first feature substance for value recognition.
  • Users of another user group can use a characteristic feature of the second feature substance for the authenticity check, and use the coding formed by the second feature substance for value recognition.
  • Both user groups can thus use the codes formed by the feature substances in order to be able to perform value recognition on the document in addition to the authenticity check without much additional effort. The exact execution of the authenticity check and the value recognition will be described in detail below.
  • These user groups may be central banks, commercial banks, any trading companies, such as local transport companies, department stores or vending machine operators, etc.
  • a third feature substance is introduced into the volume of the value document substrate.
  • the third feature substance can in principle be introduced into the volume of the value document substrate in any distribution, but also form a predetermined ordered structure. After a preferred Embodiment of the invention, however, the third feature substance is distributed substantially uniformly in the volume of the value document substrate, so that sufficiently large volume elements of the same size each contain substantially the same amount of the third feature substance.
  • the distribution can be regular, but also take place in a predetermined regular pattern.
  • the third feature substance is preferably introduced into the substrate volume with a random distribution.
  • the third feature substance is preferably added to the paper pulp before sheet formation.
  • the marker can also be introduced into the near-surface volume region of a paper substrate. This is done, for example, according to one of the publications EP-A-0 659 935 and DE 101 20 818 described method in which the particles of the marker mixed into a gas stream or a liquid stream and introduced into a wet paper web.
  • One or more of the feature substances are preferably formed by a luminescent substance or a mixture of luminescent substances. It is also possible to use luminescent substances for all the feature substances used.
  • luminescent substances or mixtures are used which emit in the infrared spectral range and which in particular have a complex, difficult to adjust spectral emission characteristic. This emission characteristic can be used in particular to distinguish the luminescent substances from similar luminescent substances. But you can also do it be used to generate a coding by the form of the emission or / and excitation spectra of the luminescent substances, which is preferably used for the first feature substance.
  • the wavelength range from 750 nm and greater, preferably 800 nm and greater.
  • a luminescent substance is selected, the luminescence of which can easily be excited and detected by commercially available detectors.
  • At least one of the luminescent feature substances is a luminescent substance based on a host lattice doped with rare earth elements. It is also possible for more or all of the luminescent substances to be formed on the basis of such a doped host lattice. These luminescent substances may e.g. be excited that is irradiated directly into the absorption bands of rare earth ions. In preferred variants, absorbent host lattices or so-called “sensitizers" can be used, which absorb the excitation radiation and transferred to the rare earth ion, which then emits the luminescence. It is understood that the host lattices and / or the dopants for the different feature substances can be different in order to obtain different excitation and / or emission regions.
  • the host lattice in the visible spectral range and optionally, in particular in the case of the first or third feature substance additionally absorbs up to about 1.1 ⁇ m in the near infrared range.
  • the excitation can then take place via light sources, such as halogen lamps, LEDs, lasers, flash lamps or xenon arc lamps, with high efficiency, so that only small quantities of the luminescent substance are required.
  • light sources such as halogen lamps, LEDs, lasers, flash lamps or xenon arc lamps
  • the small amount of substance makes it difficult to detect the substance used for potential counterfeiters. Absorbs the host lattice in the near infrared up to about 1.1 microns, so easily detectable emission lines of rare earth ions can be suppressed, so that only the more complex to be detected emission remains at longer wavelengths.
  • luminescent substances are used which absorb even in the visible spectral range, preferably over the largest part of the visible spectral range, particularly preferably into the near infrared range. Even then, emissions in these more easily accessible spectral ranges are suppressed.

  • a rare earth element emitting in the infrared spectral region such as praseodymium, neodymium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium or ytterbium.
  • Other possible embodiments of the host lattice and the dopant are in the EP-B-0 052 624 or the EP-B-0 053 124 listed.

  • at least one of the codings represents a barcode.
  • any one- or two-dimensional pattern is referred to as a barcode which consists of strips or areas with the feature substance (s) ("bars") and strips or areas lying between the bars Feature substances ("gaps").
