  • Article surveillance using reactivatable resonant tags
    Patent number: 4673923
    Abstract: A resonant circuit-bearing tag, which is capable of causing an article protection system to give an alarm, is provided with a release liner surface. To permit removal of an article to which the tag is attached without causing an alarm, a metal foil-bearing label is adhered to the release liner surface of the tag. By virtue of the release liner on the tag, the label is susceptible of being peeled off the tag, thereby restoring the tag's ability to cause an alarm.
