From the people at idtech® comes €uroTesterPen®, a high-tech scientic tool designed to detect counterfeit
paper currency.
The patented chemical solution contained in the €uroTesterPen® reacts with the chemical impurities present
in paper used for counterfeit bills but vice versa does not react with the watermarked paper employed to produce
authentic currency, a special paper used by the Reserves of every country around the world.
Following is a description of how to correctly use the €uroTesterPen
®
and make the most of all its sophisticated
technical potentials. It is important to bear in mind that the directions for correct use refer to a temperature of 20°C
(68°F).
Verication is immediate because the €uroTesterPen
®
features everything needed to instantly detect
the most common types of forged currency:
1. Make sure that the €uroTesterPen
®
is working
by drawing a 1 or 2 cm line on either writing paper
or copier paper (the mark will stay either purple
or lilac).
2. Draw a 1 cm line on the bill, possibly in an area
where there is no color. Detection is immediate
and the following can occur:
The bill is authentic if the mark remains colorless
or slightly yellowish and evaporates within 5-15
seconds at 20°C (68°F).
