Description
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is seeking information on technologies and/or materials with potential application as overt, visual authentication features for public usage on future generations of U. S. currency. The technologies offered should provide effective counterfeit deterrence against all types of threats including traditional printing, digital reproduction, as well as resisting simulation by commercially available materials. Proposed counterfeit deterrent features should be novel and not otherwise in commercial use or the public domain. The features may be eligible to become distinctive counterfeit deterrents incorporated into the banknote (inks, substrate) or applied to the note, and should not require the use of any external device for verification. An effective overt feature should be extremely difficult to simulate or duplicate but should be easy to authenticate by the public under most lighting conditions.
