A top-tier New Mexico scannable ID must incorporate:
-
Zia Holograms: Dynamic holograms of the state symbol or seal glimmer under light, exclusive to New Mexico licenses, in a horizontal layout.
-
UV Blacklight Patterns: Concealed designs, like “NM” or the state seal, glow under blacklight, per New Mexico’s UV protections.
-
REAL ID Gold Star: A flawless gold REAL ID star in the upper-right corner, aligning with compliant New Mexico IDs.
-
Scannable Barcode and Magnetic Strip: The ID passes electronic checks at bars or stores, with accurate data encoding.
-
Microtext Details: Tiny text, often “New Mexico” or yucca, near the seal or edges, ensures authenticity.
