The new Peruvian bills have been embedded with state of the art anti-counterfeit features, in an attempt to cut down on forgery announced the Central Reserve Bank of Peru. Image

The 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 New Sol bills have been redesigned, and will circulate along with the old currency, to ensure a smooth transition between the bills the people are accustomed to, and the new bills with extra security features.

Watermarks, reliefs, uv sensitive microfibers and security strips are some of the new security features, that also include offset printing techniques, color changing ink, micro-impressions and hidden numbers.
