Anti counterfeiting security Features:
The Australian 5 dollar note incorporates the following security features:
+ The clear window which contains a stylised gum flower printed in it (and can be seen from either side).
+When the Australian 5 dollar note is held up to the light, a seven pointed star within a circle is formed by four points on one side of the banknote combining perfectly with three points on the other.
+When the banknote is held up to the light also, an image of the Australian Coat of Arms can be seen under other printing.
+The words 'FIVE DOLLARS' are microprinted and can be seen with the aid of a magnifying glass.
+Slightly raised printing that can be felt with the fingers is used for the portraits and other major design elements.
+Intricate multi-coloured fine-line patterns and images appear on each side. + Under ultra-violet light, the serial number fluoresces and a square patch becomes visible on the back of the banknote.
