During WWII the Germans produced what seemed like perfect pound notes. The Bank of England caught them almost immediately but I have no idea how.

I think it was the £5 note and that they were so good that the B of E had to go to great lengths to differentiate the genuine from the counterfeits. Supposedly there a a bunch of them at the bottom of some lake in Austria.
