The Mega-UK Forged Note Checker is the ultimate currency checking system in the UK which is now the standard for Europe. It uses UV light to expose counterfeit notes and is an essential item for any shop counter.
Note Check 3
The ultra violet light picks out notes that should instantly be regarded as suspect, should they fluoresce and require immediate close inspection. It has also proved very useful for examining security documents such as cheques, bank drafts, building society pass books, passports, firearms certificates etc, particularly where tampering becomes evident in signature and sum amounts areas on these documents.
Many world currencies, in particular Scottish notes, display various security markings which are only visible under a UV light.
The white light source on the Note Check 3 is constant and flicker free, which provides a good base for examining watermarks, print quality, a sharply defined metallic strip and the 'barring' effect which although a very important security feature to check, is not mentioned in The Bank of England's Guideline Handbook.
Along with many other countries, The Bank of Scotland etch the note denomination into the metallic strip which can only be properly examined on the light base.
The light screen on the Note Check 3 is flat and smooth which provides the perfect base for checking the intaglio print (raised print which can be felt by running finder over the note).
The characteristics of the intaglio print should be profound and sharply defined. The white light is ideal for checking the quality of these features.
