Central bank reveals forged 500 hyrvnia notes

The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) has discovered forged UAH 500 bills from the 2006 issue.

The serial numbers of the forged money have incorrect second letters, for example, НХ 57877778 on the forged bank notes instead of НВ 57877778, reads NBU's letter to banks.

"For guaranteed detection of these forged bills use detectors for the visualization of infrared protective features," reads the letter.
