MÜHLEN Pen
Electronic Counterfeit Money Detector Pen
Small & Error-Free Control
Designed as a small and functional device, the MÜHLEN Pen is specially made for easy and practical use in a size that fits in the palm of your hand. By easily detecting the magnetic ink (MG) printed on banknotes by the Central Bank — the first element of authenticity — it alerts the user with sound and light about whether the money is genuine or counterfeit.
Ultraviolet Light Control
The ultraviolet (UV) light technology built into the electronic money detector pen in a laser-like arrangement lets you easily test for counterfeit money through watermarks, holograms, hidden text and security threads.
Magnetic Ink Detection
With the MG button on the device, you can perform an authenticity test by rubbing over the designated areas of a banknote. Detecting the special magnetic ink on the banknote, the device alerts the user with sound and light that the money is genuine.
Long-Lasting Battery
The MÜHLEN Pen, which you can easily carry with you and use anywhere, promises comfortable and long-lasting use thanks to its long-life battery system (button cell battery). Designed for high customer satisfaction, this device offers high performance along with functional yet easy use.
Accurate Watermark Control (UV)
By enhancing the widely known, long-established ultraviolet light technique and using it intensively, this device lets you easily see the watermarks on a banknote. To use the UV technology of the very easy-to-use MÜHLEN Pen, simply press the UV button and move it over the banknote.
Compact Design
With a length of 9 cm and a width of 2.5 cm, shaped like a small pen with a carrying strap that you can keep in your jacket pocket and carry with you at all times, the MÜHLEN Pen has a highly ergonomic structure. The set of button cell batteries supplied with the device works continuously for approximately 2 years.
Accurate Metallic Strip Control (MT)
Although many elements found on banknotes, such as watermarks, holograms and printed text, may resemble one another, the metal strip embedded within them is a system exclusive to central banks. Using a rubbing method, the money detector pen checks the authenticity of the metal strip and alerts the user with sound and light.

MÜHLEN Pen — Pocket Counterfeit Money Detector Pen with UV, MG and MT Checks
Who Is It For?
The MÜHLEN Pen is a counterfeit money detector pen for markets, pharmacies, jewelers, exchange offices, restaurants and cashier points that take cash throughout the day. Because it fits in a jacket pocket, it also suits business owners, field staff and tradespeople who check money at different locations rather than at a fixed counter. It combines magnetic ink, ultraviolet light and metal strip checks in one small electronic device and works with TL, Euro, USD and GBP banknotes.
Key Features and What They Do
- Magnetic ink check (MG): Press the MG button and rub the pen over the designated areas of a banknote; when the special magnetic ink is detected, it signals with sound and light.
- Ultraviolet check (UV): Press the UV button and move the pen across the note to make watermarks, holograms and hidden text visible.
- Metal strip check (MT): A rubbing test verifies the metal strip embedded in the banknote, a feature specific to central banks, again with an audible and visual signal.
- Pocket-sized body: At 9 cm long, 2.5 cm wide and 70 g, it comes with a neck strap so it is always within reach.
- Long battery life: One pair of button cell batteries, supplied with the device, runs it for up to about 2 years.
