Iodine Solution Technology That Works

The iodine-based solution inside each pen reacts chemically with the starch found in regular paper. Since authentic U.S. currency is printed on cotton-fiber paper, it produces a light amber mark. Counterfeit bills printed on standard paper turn dark, giving staff unmistakable visual feedback.

Iodine solution reacts to paper composition, not just ink
Light amber mark confirms genuine currency
Dark mark indicates a suspect or fraudulent bill
