Dimensions: 156 x 67 mm.
Security Features:
1. Latent Image (hidden): The effect of this image is created through the process of Intaglio printing. The shadows caused by microscopic channeling and slots create an image that is only perceivable when observed under a light, at a 45-degree angle.
2. Mark for the Visually Impaired: It consists in the placement of a geometric figure in bas relief along the lower left-hand edge of the banknotes.
3. Micro-printing: Small-letter inscriptions which, upon simple inspection, resemble a solid line but can only be deciphered if seen through a magnifying lens.
4. Asymmetrical horizontal numbering: Numbering characterized by ascending type fonts; each letter and numbering is of a different and increasing size.
5. Year of printing: The year in which the banknote was printed is located on the front of the banknotes and helps identify the series to which it belongs.
6. Vertical numbering: Numbering appears in the form of printing same-size letters in a vertical line along the right-hand edge of the banknotes.
7. Security thread with clear text: A thin thread made of synthetic material, printed with a clear text, is inserted within the paper’s mass. The banknote’s denomination is spelled out in the text and it can only be read by holding the banknote against the light. As of 2001, the thread appears on the front of the banknote, over the paper’s surface, in the form of bars that are alternatively shiny and reflective, extending from one end of the banknote to the other. The thread can also be seen on the back of the banknote, inside the paper’s mass, yet without the reflective surfaces.
8. Optical variable ink: The banknotes are printed in optical variable ink which changes color depending on the viewing angle.
9. Watermark: The watermark on the banknote shows the image of patriot Juan Pablo Duarte, which can be observed by holding the banknote against the light. The image is neither drawn nor printed. It was incorporated into the body of the paper during its manufacture; therefore, it is an integral part of the paper.
10. Optical variable band: An optical variable band has been placed on the back of the banknotes. When the banknote is held flat, the band appears in a golden color and tends to disappear when the banknote changes position.
