Product Description:
The Intelligent Comparitor? with SmartMark? reader is designed to further protect against counterfeiting by incorporating a bar code optic unit. The bar code optic device is designed to read specially marked SmartMark? tokens. This device reads precision mirrors that are accurately minted into the SmartMark? token when the token is manufactured. The SmartMark? is minted into the coin with great precision. The relationship between the center of the mass of the coin and the placement of the bar code is fixed into a specific pattern producing the entire coin signature. This combination of variables makes counterfeiting extremely difficult.
