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.
