• Hold the banknote up to the light. A multi-tonal watermark with a portrait of Hryhorii Skovoroda and a light element with the number 500 should be visible. Also check the security thread: it bears the inscription "500 ГРН", the small State Emblem of Ukraine, and the denomination marking.

  • Tilt the banknote at different angles. On 2015-model banknotes, the optically variable SPARK element gradually changes color from green to blue. The direction of movement of the background image on the security thread should also change.
