According to experts, along with banknotes in denominations of 1000 rubles, scammers were also hit by five thousand.

Whether it's 1000 or 5000 rubles, checking them will not be a big deal. In particular, you can use the very simple methods.

And, of course, it is worth paying special attention to the presence of watermarks, emblems and protective colored hairs. In addition, there are other verification methods that are specific for each note separately. Let's talk about them in more detail.
Holding a banknote in face value of 1000 rubles,pay attention to the coat of arms of the city of Yaroslavl. On real money, you can see a horizontal iridescent strip located in the middle. If the note is rotated, then this bar should move up or down (relative to its original position).
The second thing to look at is the year of a thousandthbank notes. On the original you will see 1997. And when placing a note on the light, you will see the year of modification - 2004 or 2010. The third sign of authenticity is the presence of a watermark in the form of a portrait of Yaroslav the Wise (on a white banknote field).
Also need to carefully feel the inscription"The ticket of the Bank of Russia" and adjacent strips to it. Since the inscription was created for people with disabilities, this text and strips are embossed. They can be easily felt with your fingers. In addition, carefully look at the homogeneous green field of the banknote. When tilted, you can see yellow and blue stripes on its background.
And, at last, at detailed consideration, the drawing of the building which is on the right side of a chapel, consists of small graphic pictures and inscriptions.
The five-thousandth note also has its own protectivesigns. For example, if the banknote is tilted to the side, then the image of the emblem on it will change its crimson color to golden-green. The second important point - when tilting the banknote, pay attention to the single-colored field (located between the inscriptions "5000" and "Khabarovsk"). On its background, as a rule, rainbow bands arise.
The third sign is the presence of watermarkson the margin of the banknote. On the one hand, it is "5000", and on the other hand it is a portrait of NN Muraviev-Amursky. Then carefully look at the security thread. With real money, it is not all hidden under the paper, but partially protrudes, forming a kind of mother-of-pearl dotted line. In addition, when viewing it in the light, you can see a light number of 5000 on a uniform dark background.
Now you know how you can check money for authenticity. According to the representatives of the bank, only three signs are enough to make sure that the banknote is real.
