I would like to know what the string of English and numbers on the lower corner of the hundred-dollar bill is? Does it have any special significance?

This is the patent of a person from Tangshan, Hebei Province. It is a method of counterfeiting using RMB and its numbers. It consists of RMB and its RMB number. Its characteristics are: (1) It consists of RMB and RMB numbers. The number on it serves as anti-counterfeiting information. (2) Use RMB with certain regular numbers. (3) Put one or several pieces of RMB in a certain range into the product or its packaging. (4) The RMB and the number on it determine the uniqueness of the product.

Detailed explanation: We can often see the numbers on the RMB. The numbers on the current fifth set of RMB, large denomination currencies use double numbers. In fact, the double numbers are not a unique product of the fifth set of RMB. , there is a precedent as early as the second set of RMB with double numbers. The double numbers on the second set of RMB are all horizontal and the color is single. The double numbers used on the fifth set of RMB are double numbers horizontally and vertically. For example, the 50 yuan and 100 yuan coupons have double numbers horizontally and vertically. Another feature of the fifth set of RMB printed numbers is the double color, that is, the two numbers use different The colors of the 5 yuan, 10 yuan, and 20 yuan coupons are single numbers, but double colors are also used, which are called double-color horizontal numbers. The purpose of this is to increase the difficulty and prevent forgery.

The numbers on the RMB can play a counting role during the printing process. Even if there are defective products during the printing process, the number can be easily calculated in time, thus avoiding the need for re-counting afterwards. The printing quantity is reduced, thus saving a lot of manpower and material resources.

The number on the RMB can also help detect robberies and thefts under special circumstances, especially the original new RMB coupons. According to the number on the stolen RMB, the bank can compare the numbers on the withdrawn currency. Look for clues to commit the crime and speed up the process of solving the case; if there is a car accident during the currency transfer process and the scattered currency is robbed, the bank can collect it at the counter based on the range of numbers on the currency. An incident like this happened in the United States. A cash transport truck was involved in a car accident, and the currency scattered on the road was robbed. The police asked the money robbers to return the money to the bank, but there were few responders. When the police announced in the media that the money had been robbed, After entering the number range, most of the robbers took the initiative to return the stolen money to the bank.

In recent years, due to the increase in counterfeit currency, some units have adopted the method of writing the name of the payer on the money when it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity when collecting cash to facilitate search. For example, schools have done this to pay tuition and miscellaneous fees, raise funds to build houses, etc. After the media exposed it many times and pointed out that it was an illegal act that damaged the RMB, these units learned to record the number on the currency and the corresponding method of the payer. We have achieved good results in dealing with the problem of forgery, and at the same time we have avoided the illegal phenomenon of contaminating the RMB. This is one of the examples of creative use of RMB numbers in society. It can be seen that the small number on the RMB can also play a big role in some cases.

The numbers on the RMB also play a certain role when financial institutions redeem incomplete RMB. For example, when a piece of banknotes is accidentally torn off and there is a splicing of horizontal or vertical numbers, the bank will determine whether the horizontal or vertical numbers are connected. If they are exactly the same, you can judge whether it is a complete currency and whether it is suspected of taking advantage of national interests.

The number on the RMB can also be used to distinguish the sooner or later the issuance time of the same banknote. Generally speaking, the fewer digits in the number, or the smaller the number, the earlier the issuance time, otherwise it will be later. You can also distinguish whether they are the same set of other RMB, such as paper cents. Although they are both 1953 editions, their issuance times are very different (the issuance was interrupted for a time). The ones with prefixes and numbers are from 1955. It was issued on March 1, and the one without the number was re-issued on July 15, 1981. To avoid duplication of numbers, only the title will be printed without the number when reprinting. Since most of the second set of RMB issued on March 1, 1955 had been withdrawn from circulation, many experts, scholars and coin enthusiasts believed that it should be classified into the third set of RMB. In this case, those with numbers and those without The numbers belong to two different sets of RMB.

Of course, the numbers on the RMB have far more than the above functions. As an important structural element and an integral part of the banknotes, the numbers cannot be omitted and are indispensable. Don’t say that the counter cannot appear during the printing process. (if a problem occurs, a large amount of waste will be produced), and the color of the number must not be missed. Otherwise, once it enters the society, it will be a hot news, and such currency will also become the object of collection and speculation by some people. Therefore, the quality of number printing is also an important reference indicator for testing the quality of RMB.

The specific meaning of the number is a secret. Of course I don’t know it either.
