Bank notes
Canada now uses holograms on its $20, $50, $100 and $1000 bills.
They're a small patch on the top right hand corner that looks like gold foil.
Written on this foil is the denomination of the bill (20, 50, &c). As the
viewing angle is changed, the color of this writing shifts.
Obviously, this will blow a photocopier out of the water. I have minimal
experience in holography, but it would also seem to be difficult to print
one on a metal foil.
