DATA CARRIER WITH AN OPTICALLY VARIABLE ELEMENT

摘要

The invention concerns a data carrier, in particular a bank note, security document, identity card or the like, of which the surface bears a security element (2). At least a partial region of the data carrier comprises a background layer (3) provided with at least one feature substantiating authenticity. The optically variable element is applied to this background layer in such a way that it overlaps this layer at least partially but not completely.
