The present invention relates to a security marker; a method of preparing same; the use of said security marker; a security article, document, or element comprising said marker; the use of said security article, document, or element; an object of value comprising said marker; a method of preparing said security article, document, or element or said object of value; a method for determining the authenticity of said security article, document, or element or said object of value; and a system for determining the authenticity of said security article, document, or element or said object of value.

The disclosure relates to the technical field of secure identification document, specifically to a method for producing a color secure identification document and a color secure identification document thereof. The method comprises: etching identity information on the substrate of the data surface of document by laser, and the identity information comprises a black-and-white image and text information; printing a color image on the black-and-white image with color ink so that the color image and the black-and-white image are aligned and coincide with each other to form a personalized data surface; and printing a transparent protective layer on the upper surface of the personalized data surface with a transparent varnish, wherein the protective layer covers the color image.
