Note Detail

Chinese wire manufacturers shrink-wrapping (low denomination) currency into their spools of wire because they're having trouble with counterfeit wire passing off as being from their company, and:

1. They publish the serial numbers of the notes they embedded, and
2. The penalty for counterfeiting wire is not that bad, but the penalty for counterfeiting Chinese currency is brutal

Nice trick...

@cjd it has to be hell to be a Deming shop in mainland china. i have never heard good things said about doing business with or in china. only that there are chinese who do want to actually sell good product and the government & culture are 100% completely useless when it comes to enforcing quality standards.
