It is important for the public to note that counterfeiting Liberian dollar currency is a crime, and the Bank will work with the security agencies to ensure the enforcement of the law against would-be violators.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As the process of introducing the new currency has just started, the CBL will continue to strengthen its public education, not only about the security features within the banknotes, but also to campaign on the lookout for potential counterfeit banknotes, especially in the rural parts of the country.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Regarding the features on the newly printed L$100 and the existing L$500 banknotes, both the newly printed and existing banknotes have slanted lines, making the edges rough. When held up and flipped, the seal on the banknotes becomes visible inside the left white field, and the stars in the threads across the notes do move. The counterfeit banknotes do not have such features. Moreover, the paper used for the counterfeit banknotes can be easily detected from their feel and look as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While the CBL wants to reassure the public not to panic about the recent situation as the counterfeit banknotes can be easily recognized and detected, the public is urged to alert the CBL and the Ministry of Justice with any information relating to the use or introduction of any counterfeit banknotes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
