This paper is an improved relative to the substrate that exists today, with a heavier weight and cotton thread, which gives it a texture more easily identified and can, in turn, make an impression with more relief for recognition. Also, the ticket will have a special symbol for blind people to identify it. It has elements of art security to facilitate the recognition of people and equipment using these payment methods. "Today we have tickets much safer than we are replacing, we have not seen fakes, only rough copies," said Jose de Gregorio. The obverse has a new portrait of Andrés Bello, based on a portrait by French artist Raymond Monvoisin (1790-1870) belonging to the University of Chile. Next to him, incorporating images of the heart of Copihue, national flower and Antu, Mapuche symbol representing the sun that fertilizes the soil. The reverse has an image of Salar de Surire Monument, located in northern Chile in the Region of Arica and Parinacota. It also contains the image of Chilean Flamingo, a bird that lives in shallow water areas, fresh and salt, along national level.As the whole concept of the family, the security measures between denominations of the same material are maintained, so as to make recognition easier for the public. Thus, the $ 20,000 bill has the same security measures of the ticket of $ 10,000, both made special cotton paper for the production of tickets. The new bill of $ 20,000 is among the safety features of an intaglio printing pronounced, a watermark more sophisticated, because together the portrait is added as an additional safety, the text 20 MIL, and incomplete picture in each one side, we can look back-supplementing the number 20,000.
It also has two security thread. One is visible only to the light and the other is a 3D Strip, within which there is a Antu, an icon that moves across the banknote is tilted. When tilted on the back, the number 20 000 will change color from green to a bright coppery orange.
DIMENSION One of the characteristics of the new family of banknotes that facilitates their identification is the difference of 7 millimeters in length between each of their names, in descending order of value. Therefore, the 20,000 tickets has measure 148 x 70 mm versus the 10,000 that measures 141 x 70 mm and 5000 with a size of 134 x 70 mm. The design of the new family of banknotes was awarded to the Swedish company AB Crane, while in production, the new family of banknotes was awarded to companies Note Printing Australia Ltd (Australia) and Crane AB (Sweden). The cost of developing each of them, in general, and depending on the exchange rate is between $ 50 and $ 100.
