A UV Tester can be used to inspect the Fluorescence of e.g. stamps, banknotes, credit cards and more. You check the fluorescent authenticity characteristics of Banknotes to distinguish the original from the counterfeit or in the case of Postage Stamps checks the illumination of Phosphorus stripes or an L profile.
Postage stamps contain phosphorus to enable automatic sorting at the post office. The first stamps with phosphorus appeared in Britain in 1959 as a replacement for stamps with graphite. There are a large number of stamps available with and without phosphorus. It can be very useful to be able to make this distinction in your collection, and there is often a difference in value between the two. Some stamps from these countries have a different way of applying the phosphor, so the phosphor lights up with a different frequency. If you want to be absolutely sure, it can be helpful to use both long wave and short wave with certain countries.
