STATE
OF WAR
This $13 note
is the latest in Stephen Barnwell's series of Oil Certificates,
political satire notes commenting on the turbulent political times
we live in. As global oil reserves become exhausted over
the coming decades, we will enter a Season of War. The world's nations
will fight for control the dwindling supply of oil, and soon wars
will become commonplace and everywhere.

SECURITY FEATURES
All State of
War notes are printed on watermarked paper. This security feature
is impossible to scan or copy. It is a genuine watermark: when held
up to
the light, the stars become visible as lighter than
the surrounding paper, from both sides of the note.
The $13 note
is printed on a high quality paper, which is very thick and rich.
This requires that you hold the note up to a strong light in order
to clearly see the watermark. The image below shows the watermark
when held up to a strong light.
