The blank spot on the opposite side of Mao has a picture of a rose and the number 10 that can only be seen by holding the bill up to the light. On the back side you can see a picture of the gorge on the Yangzi River. A partial metal strip runs vertically through the number 10 on the front for anti-counterfeiting purposes. Check any bill you receive for these anti-counterfeiting features. They will always check yours.
