Which one is fake?

Ten days ago or so I was told faking a goldback wasn't possible. And my response was just needed good equipment. This is the results of peeling a dozen gb apart. Using a scanner worth more than most cars, and millions of dollars in printing equipment and 60+ attempts.

One of these is fake. The tactile parts on the back can still be felt. If you handled gb all the time you might be able to tell the fake is more 'slippery'. And the cut edge doesn't feel right if you have a real one side by side. I am 100% confident that no regular person could tell the difference, and I bet 80% plus on here couldn't without a real one in the other hand. Visually they are the same.

I will not be releasing the name of the print shop or three of the massive hurdles that bypassing really needed experience making actually currency notes to know. Mostly because he didn't tell me enough for me to know.

Oh and passes uv. Was way easier than the raised part.

My buddy did say printing USD would be easier. And above the 5gb the weight/stiffness would be noticed. And his costs on the inks, material, and printer time significantly overcome the value of 1.

So food for thought on security.
