Details
This counterfeit detection pen is easy to use and produces fast results. Just a mark on a counterfeit bill will give you an indication of the bills validity. When marked, the ink from the pen will react to the wood-based or fiber-based paper. The color of a genuine bill will remain amber while suspect bills will appear black or a dark brown color. Because the pen's truth telling serum reacts to wood-based fiber this pen works effectively with all bills including newly issued bank notes. Any suspect bills should be tested with a more advanced counterfeit technology.
