Mossbauer and X-ray fluorescence studies revealed that a number of valuable monetary units (dollars, pounds, yen, old German marks, and others) are printed using pigments which contain considerable amounts of iron. Mossbauer spectroscopy has been applied to the analysis of the pigments that are used in both authentic and counterfeit currency notes. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
