PMG is a good choice.</p><p><br /></p><p>Despite the lack of security features, counterfeits of antique paper money are uncommon. They won&#039;t be made for circulation, because retailers are much more cautious about older notes nowadays. It&#039;s certainly possible to create a counterfeit for the collector&#039;s market, but the knowledge needed to successfully&nbsp; pass them is unlikely to be found among average counterfeiters. Knowledge of plate numbers, sheet positions and serial number ranges are necessary to make a good counterfeit. </p><p><br /></p><p>There were some large-size counterfeits created by foreign governments.

But familiarizing yourself with the printing process will help you identify which kind of errors are possible and which are not, and which kind of errors can only come from the BEP and which can be made afterwards.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
