Copying these images causes their possible distortion or appearance of inappropriate light or dark images (moire effect: set of fine and narrowly printed lines which produce an optical confusion when reproduced by copiers).
Microtext
In the top part of the banknote there is a positive microtext in the form of eleven lines of repeated value numeral „1000”.
