Inspect threads
The security thread is a vertical thread embedded in the currency note. When the note is tilted, it changes color and the denomination of the note is printed on it. Check the color of the thread and make sure it changes color when bent. If the thread does not change color or is missing, it is likely to be a fake note.
Check watermark
A watermark is an embedded image that is visible when held up to light. Check the watermark of the image of Mahatma Gandhi and the denomination of the note. If the watermark is missing or blurred, the note is likely to be fake.
Observe the micro-lettering
Micro-lettering is a feature only visible under a magnifying glass. The micro-lettering on the currency note should be sharp and clear. The letters should be in English and Hindi and should be legible. If the letters are not clear or legible, then the note is likely to be fake. Check print quality The print quality of the currency note should be sharp and clear. The lines should be crisp and the colors should be bright. If the print quality is poor, then the note is likely to be fake.
Paper quality
Check the quality of the paper, the paper used for printing currency notes is not normal as it is a cotton paper which is a mixture of 75 per cent cotton and 25 per cent linen.
See intaglio printing
Intaglio printing is a printing process that produces an enhanced effect on a note. The enhanced effect can be felt by running your fingers over it. The intaglio printing on the currency note should be clear and sharp. If the printing is flat and there is no raised effect, then the note is likely to be fake.
Serial number
Each currency note has a unique serial number. Check the serial number on the note and make sure it is not repeated or missing a number. If the serial number is missing or duplicated, the note is likely to be fake.
Compare with original note
The easiest way to check a fake currency note is to compare it with a genuine note of the same denomination. Keep the suspect note with the genuine note and compare them side by side. Notice any differences in color, texture, or print quality. If you see any difference then the note is likely to be fake.
