The invention relates to a security element for a valuable document, such as a bank note, identification card or similar, comprising a transparent substrate. At least one first security feature is disposed on the first surface of said substrate and at least one second security feature is disposed on the second opposite surface of the substrate. According to the invention, the first security feature comprises opaque pattern base elements that are arranged at a distance from each other in the form of a grid. On at least one part of the pattern base element, on the side opposite the transparent substrate, first information elements are arranged, said information elements being a different colour to that of the pattern base elements. The second security feature comprises second information elements that overlap the pattern base elements and that protrude over at least one side of the respective pattern base elements. The colour second information elements also differ from the pattern base elements. Overall, the first and the second information elements produce, for an observer, at least one alphanumeric characteristic, a logo and/or at least one graphic representation. |
