But when you look closely at the finer details and lines on the note, they are blurry, and mostly incomplete (ie, the border around the president, the small text near the bottom ect).. kind of like dotted or semi-dashed lines.

To be honest, i dont even know if this 'note', or coupon, is supposed to have a watermark. All my other ration coupons do not .. at least those i checked. The paper is a thin type bond, sorta like the rice coupons, but possibly a bit thinner. One thing i forgot to mention, this coupon is supposed to be for the ration item cloth. one other thing... i have a counterfeit US $20, 2004 series.
