From the people at idtech®comes €uroTesterPen®, a high-tech scientic tool designed to detect counterfeit

paper currency.

The patented chemical solution contained in the €uroTesterPen®reacts with the chemical impurities present

in paper used for counterfeit bills but vice versa does not react with the watermarked paper employed to produce

authentic currency, a special paper used by the Reserves of every country around the world.

Following is a description of how to correctly use the €uroTesterPen® and make the most of all its sophisticated

technical potentials. It is important to bear in mind that the directions for correct use refer to a temperature of 20°C

(68°F).

Verication is immediate because the €uroTesterPen® features everything needed to instantly detect

the most common types of forged currency:

1. Make sure that the €uroTesterPen® is working

by drawing a 1 or 2 cm line on either writing paper

or copier paper (the mark will stay either purple

or lilac).

2. Draw a 1 cm line on the bill, possibly in an area

where there is no color. Detection is immediate

and the following can occur:

The bill is authentic if the mark remains colorless

or slightly yellowish and evaporates within 5-15

seconds at 20°C (68°F).
