The invention relates to a value document, such as a bank note, a check, a credit card or another payment card, an identification card, or the like, which has a front side (9) and a back side (10), displays an image (3) recognizable by the unaided eye in the top view, at least from the front side, has specific dimensions (B, H) in the top view, and has a multi-layered substrate body (2) which, in the top view, has the specific dimensions (B, H) and is structured from at least one first and one second transparent film (11, 12), each also having the specific dimensions (B, H) in the top view and being connected to each other by an intermediate layer (13) such that inner sides of the films (11, 12) are oriented toward each other and outer sides of the films (11, 12) are oriented away from the intermediate layer (13), wherein the outer side of the first film (11) is oriented toward the front side (9) and the outer side of the second film (12) is oriented toward the back side (10). The image (3) which is recognizable from the front side (9) is produced by a first embossed structure (14), which is metallized at least in sections and which is arranged on the inner side of the first film (9) and designed at least in sections as a sub-wavelength structure (17) which has a lateral, i.e. crosswise to the top view direction, varying profiling and/or periodicity. The outer side of the first film (11) and a front side of the intermediate layer (13) oriented toward the first film (11), forming the front side (9), are free of imprinting contributing to the image (3). |
