Tilt Security Features


Please click on the genuine images to view the locations of the key security features on the note.


Paper Notes 


Kinegram


Genuine

Counterfeit

The kinegram appears as an octagonal foil on the front of the note. It contains an image of the denomination numeral which shifts as the note is tilted. On varying the viewing angle, one can also see the logo of BCCS or MAS transforming into the letters “BCCS” or the Singapore Lion symbol. The background of the kinegram is composed of shapes representing electron orbitals which change from bright to dark as the note is rotated. This background shimmers in an array of colours when rotated. These features are unique properties to the kinegram and cannot be replicated.


Latent Image


Genuine

Counterfeit

Two distinctively different and latent images bearing the BCCS or MAS logo and the Singapore Lion symbol become visible alternately when the note is tilted at various angles. The latent image also glows brightly under ultra-violet light.


Polymer Notes


Singapore Lion Symbol with Hidden Image


The stylized gold patch in the shape of the Singapore Lion symbol, with the texts of the denomination of the note across it on several lines, has an image of the Singapore Arms that will appear at varying angles.
