A top-tier New York scannable ID must incorporate:
-
Excelsior Holograms: Radiant holograms of the Statue of Liberty or state seal shine under light, unique to New York licenses, in a horizontal format.
-
UV Blacklight Patterns: Concealed designs, like “NY” or the skyline, illuminate under blacklight, consistent with New York’s security features.
-
REAL ID Gold Star: A precise gold REAL ID star in the upper-right corner, matching compliant New York IDs.
-
Scannable Barcode and Magnetic Strip: The ID verifies at venues, encoding correct data.
-
Microtext Details: Ultra-fine text, often “New York” or Excelsior motto, near the seal or edges, verifies authenticity.
