FIELD: printing.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a protection element for bank notes, cards-passes, etc. The protection element comprises a first substrate which at least partly is opaque when viewed in transmitted light, and a plurality of magnetic zones placed on the said substrate, at that each of the said magnetic zones is formed using the first magnetic material, the second magnetic material or composition of the first and second magnetic materials which are at least partially superimposed. The first magnetic material and the second magnetic material exhibit different coercivity values which are determined by the sensor, at that the first and second magnetic materials are magnetically saturated, so that one of the first and second magnetic materials is not affected by the other.
EFFECT: protection element has a high ability to protect against counterfeiting.
