Patent number: 7040664Abstract: A self-verifying security document, such as a banknote, comprises a flexible sheet formed from a plastics substrate bearing indicia. The sheet has a window of transparent plastics material that includes self-verification means for verifying a security device provided at a laterally spaced second portion of the sheet when the sheet is bent or folded to bring the window into register with the security device. The self-verification means may be an optical lens for reading an area of microprinting. In another embodiment, the self-verification means may be an optical filter for viewing an area printed with metameric inks. In other embodiments, the self-verification means and the security device may be polarizing windows or Moire inducing patterns.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2004Date of Patent: May 9, 2006Assignee: Securency PTY LTDInventors: John Charles Taylor, Bruce Alfred Hardwick, Wayne Kevin Jackson, Paul Zientek, Cameron Rex Hibbert

Patent number: 6471248Abstract: A security document (1), such as a bank note, is formed from a sheet-like substrate (10) of clear plastic material with layers (13, 14, 15, 16) of opacifying ink applied to the surfaces (11, 12) of the substrate (10). The security document (1) includes a security device (20) which is at least partially obscured by the layers (13, 14) of opacifying ink on a flat surface (11) of the substrate (10). The layers (15, 16) on the second surface (12) of the substrate (10) are applied in such a manner so as to leave a “half-window” area uncovered by opacifying ink through which the security device (20) is visible for one side of the document (1). The security device (20) may extend transversely outside the half-window area and be visible in transmission, enabling a different contrasting effect to be observed from both sides of the document.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2001Date of Patent: October 29, 2002Assignee: Securency Pty Ltd.Inventors: Bruce Hardwick, Wayne Kevin Jackson, Paul Zientek, Cameron Rex Hibbert
