<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1208913, member: 19065"]I have noticed on some circulated Mexican polymer notes that the clear 'window' areas where the printed area surrounding the window shows wear to the printing. The wear results in printed details rubbing off the material and some folded areas display wear as cracked surface printing that has lifted off much like dry cracked/peeled paint appears with age. Polymer notes do collect dirt build up easily from circulation but I'm sure the various security agencies are always looking for ways to improve and prevent the above mentioned issues. Maybe future polymer notes will utilize antibacterial inks or plastics embedded with antimicrobial silver to prevent spread of germs. If the currency was printed with silver or other antimicrobial precious metals and the notes were actually backed by precious metals we could have actual silver certificates printed with said properties. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
