The 25- and 50-rupee notes were printed by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oberthur.com\" target=\"self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Oberthur Technologies<\/a> on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.innoviasecurity.com\" target=\"self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Innovia Security&#8217;s<\/a> Guardian substrate, whereas the 500-rupee note was printed on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delarue.com\" target=\"self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">De La Rue\u2019s<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delarue.com\/Home\/DeLaRueSafeguard\/\" target=\"self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Safeguard<\/a> substrate (formerly called Flexycoin). The new polymer notes will circulate in parallel with the preceding paper banknotes upon which their designs are based. The notes contain numerous new security features such as transparent windows showing the image of the dodo, numbers printed with magnetic ink which become fluorescent under ultra violet light, and swing features printed in iridescent ink, which change to a different color when observed in transparency or when tilted.<\/p>\n<p>Courtesy of Mike Jackson, Thomas Krause, Alex Tobert, and Hartmut Fraunhoffer (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.banknoten.de\" target=\"self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.banknoten.de<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>B434 (P66): 500 rupees (US$15) Orange.
