While playing around with a UV light I bought (for my puppy during potty training and a carpet 
I realized many things we see everyday have UV markings on them to deter counterfeiting. Below are some of my findings.
Amateur Radio License - you can see the markings in the paper it is printed on
Savings Bond - you can see the markings on the paper and the emblem to the right
Visa and MasterCard - you can see the symbol and letters
Texas License from about 10+ years ago even then has the word Texas written diagonally in UV
North Carolina Car Title - This has NCDMV repeated over the title
The 5$ bill and higher - you can see the marking on the left - Newer bills also turn pink under the blacklight
