INTRODUCTION & REGULATORY OVERVIEW
The icons below represent 12 of the 14 industries that must comply with Chestny ZNAK regu-
lations: bicycles, bottled drinking water, dairy, footwear, fur, light industry, medications, per-
fumes, photo cameras and flash bulbs, tires, tobacco, and wheelchairs. At the time of publica-
tion, bottled drinking water and wheelchairs were still in the “experiment” (i.e., pilot) phase,
and the government had announced pilots for two other industries, beer and beer-based
mixed drinks and biologically active food additives, both of which are scheduled to begin
April 1 of this year.

Chestny ZNAK, which is sometimes translated as Honest SIGN or Honest BADGE, is managed
by the Center for Research in Perspective Technologies (CRPT), a public-private partnership
akin to the European Medicines Verification Organization. Phased implementation of the sys-
tem began in 2019 and is on track to conclude in 2024.
The Russian government says its main objective is “to guarantee the authenticity and de-
clared quality of goods being purchased by customers.” Deadlines and labeling requirements
have changed, but the fundamentals have remained constant: serialization, aggregation, unit-
and batch-level traceability, crypto codes, and electronic reporting and records management.
Products must be marked with DataMatrix codes with an alphanumeric sequence that con-
tains at least four groups of information: a Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), a serial number,
a verification key, and a verification code (i.e., crypto code).
As shown in the box below, a typical alphanumeric sequence comprises 85 characters, includ-
ing two non-printable, machine-readable group separators.
Chestny ZNAK’s illustrative marking code. Note the two gaps where the non-printable, ma-
chine-readable group separator is located.
• The first two numbers are the application identifier.
• The next 14 numbers are the GTIN.
• The next two numbers are an application identifier.
• The next 13 numbers and letters are the unique serial number.
• Next is a non-printable group separator (ASCII code 29, right).
• The next two numbers are another application identifier.
• The next four numbers and letters are the verification key.
• Next is another group separator.
• The next two numbers are another application identifier.
• The last 44 characters are the verification code (crypto code).

Only an authorized representative can request crypto codes from the CRPT, in order to print
and apply the marking on products. rfxcel is an approved partner of the CRPT. Furthermore,
the owner of goods must create a Universal Transfer Document (UTD) at the moment of
ownership, then transfer it to the CRPT.
It’s prudent here to note that the regulations use the term “economic agent” as a catchall for
manufacturers, importers, wholesalers, and retailers. Though these stakeholders are also men-
tioned by name in Chestny ZNAK materials, it’s also common to see language such as, “Codes
are requested, generated, and delivered in an electronic form through the web interface of
the economic agent’s personal account.” We use “economic agent” throughout this white pa-
per; please keep this definition in mind as you’re reading.
Chestny ZNAK also envisions com-
plete traceability all the way to
consumers. As the figure, right,
depicts, every product will go
through five steps, starting with
manufacturers and ending with
consumers. Products are to be
scanned at each step, which
Chestny ZNAK says will help
“guarantee the authenticity and
declared quality of goods being
purchased by customers.”
A product’s last step occurs when
a consumer makes a purchase. In Source: Chestny ZNAK
most cases, stores are required to use point-of-sale cash registers that are connected to the
internet. When the cashier scans the DataMatrix code on a product, the data is synchronized
with the information in Chestny ZNAK’s catalogue of marked goods and the item is officially
removed from circulation. If the data doesn’t match, the product is deemed counterfeit or
otherwise illegitimate and cannot be sold.
Chestny ZNAK wants consumers to be active participants in Russia’s supply chain. To facili-
tate this, it developed an app for smart devices that it describes as every consumer’s “main
assistant for product quality tracking and counterfeit detection.” The app “considers the man-
ufacturer's type of labeling and instantly gives the result of the test.” At the time of publica-
tion, the app was in version 4.7.0 and had been downloaded more than 1 million times.
By using the app to scan DataMatrix codes on packaging, consumers get instant access to
rich product information directly from Chestny ZNAK. This can include the date, time, and
place of production, the expiration date, and details about the product’s journey from the
farm or factory to the store. If a scan reveals a “violation” — meaning the product is counter-
feit or not in compliance with marking regulations — consumers can report it directly to the
CRPT. They can also send questions about how the app works and suggestions to improve it.
The images on the next page are from the Chestny ZNAK app’s home page. They show how
to use the app and many of its features.

As we said in our introduction, labeling requirements vary by industry. More precisely, the
requirements can vary greatly by industry. Solution providers cannot simply claim to be
“Chestny ZNAK compliant”; they have to thoroughly understand the regulations for every in-
dustry, and they have to be able to act quickly and with certainty when a client has a ques-
tion. And last but certainly not least, they have to be certified by the CRPT.
This means having teams in Russia who speak the language, have a first-hand view of the en-
tire regulatory landscape, closely monitor changes in requirements and deadlines, and who
have been vetted, verified, and approved by the CRPT.
Structure of this paper
This paper discusses all the industries regulated by Chestny ZNAK, as well as current and
scheduled pilots. Industries are presented in alphabetical order. We discuss timelines, labeling
requirements, requirements for key stakeholders/economic agents (e.g., manufacturers,
wholesalers, and importers), and what makes the regulations unique in the world. We provide
Russia’s product classification code (OKPD2) and/or the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU)
Combined Nomenclature of Foreign Economic Activity (TN VED) code 1 for many categories,
as well as the official corresponding product description.
We have taken pains to be thorough. However, because regulations and deadlines change —
often unexpectedly and without a timely public announcement from authorities — we do not
guarantee the accuracy of the information presented in this paper. Readers should not base
decisions solely on the information herein.
For the most up-to-date, accurate information about Chestny ZNAK, we encourage you to

REGULATED INDUSTRIES
BICYCLES
A 7-month pilot for bicycles ended on May 31, 2020, and mandatory labeling is scheduled to
begin on September 1 of this year. At the time of publication, rfxcel was the only official CRPT
software or integration partner for bicycles.
As in other industries, products must be marked with a DataMatrix code with a 14-digit GTIN;
a 13-digit serial number generated by the CRPT or the economic agent; a 4-digit verification
key from the CRPT; and a 44-digit crypto code from the CRPT. At the time of publication,
Chestny ZNAK reported that 2,676 supply chain participants had been issued 5,186 codes.
The table below shows the OKPD2 and TN VED codes of the products that must be labeled,
as provided by Chestny ZNAK. Note that the “bicycles” category is not limited to two-
wheeled vehicles.

tracks animal products in Russia and is part of the Federal State Information System (FGIS).
Mercury will track dairy products from farms to processing plants, and Chestny ZNAK will
track them onward to customers. The Ministry of Agriculture and the Federal Service for Vet-
erinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance approved this scenario.
In the shared Mercury–Chestny ZNAK system, the codes are associated with “veterinary
accompanying documents” that provide a provenance for the product. This information is
passed along the supply chain and reported electronically to both Chestny ZNAK and the
national Goods Marking State Information System via the mandated UTD.
rfxcel is an official CRPT software and integration partner for dairy. At the time of publication,
Chestny ZNAK reported that 11,113 supply chain participants had been issued more than 107.4
million codes.

FOOTWEAR
Mandatory labeling for footwear was supposed to begin on March 1, 2020, but the govern-
ment postponed the deadline to July 1, 2020. Production and import of unlabeled shoes is
prohibited, as is wholesale and retail sale of unlabeled footwear. At the time of publication,
rfxcel was the only official CRPT software or integration partner for footwear.
DataMatrix codes must contain 10 data points, including a GTIN, a serial number, a verification
key and verification code (i.e., crypto code) generated by the CRPT, a taxpayer personal
identification number (TIN), the brand name, and the materials used to make the shoes.
Manufacturers and importers are responsible for printing the codes and applying them to
products and packaging. The codes remain “active” for several years so returned items can
be recirculated in the supply chain and continue to be verified as genuine. At the time of pub-
lication, Chestny ZNAK reported that 80,256 supply chain participants had been issued more
than 2.2 billion codes.
SHOE GOODS (OTHER THAN THOSE MADE BY ARTISANS)
Mandatory labeling began July 1, 2020
OKPD2 Code Description
15.20.11 Waterproof footwear with soles and uppers of rubber or plastic, excluding foot-
wear with a protective metal toe cap

32.30.12 Ski shoes
Corresponding TN VED codes: 6401; 6402; 6403; 6404; 6405
FUR
Mandatory labeling of furs began on August 12, 2016. At the time of publication, Chestny
ZNAK reported 14,256 supply chain participants had been issued more than 22.7 million
codes.
“Articles of apparel, clothing accessories, and other articles of furskin” (TN VED group 4303)
must be labeled. This includes items made from natural furs such as mink, nutria (also known
as coypu or swamp rat), arctic fox, fox, rabbit, hare, raccoon, and sheepskin; items made of
other materials that have a natural fur lining; and items made with natural fur on the outside,
except when the fur is used as a finishing material (e.g., for normal-sized collars and lapels).
All regulated products must be marked with a control identification mark (CIM), an “account-
ing form” with anti-counterfeiting elements with a built-in RFID tag for marking goods. CIMs
must be sewn into the garment, glued onto its label, or attached with a fastener or through a
button hole. They must measure 25×160mm or 53×80mm. A red CIM indicates imported
goods; a green CIM indicates goods produced in Russia.
The table below shows what information stakeholders must transmit to Chestny ZNAK.
Manufacturers Recipients of Goods
• TIN • Identifier for the CIM and/or the type of
• TN VED code (TN VED category 4043) RFID tag and/or an SGTIN

mission/agency agreement)
• Seller’s TIN
• Buyer’s TIN and date of the documents con-
firming the circulation of goods
• Value of the goods
7Certain goods made with fur do not have to be labeled. These include products in TN VED
groups 4202 and 4203, which, broadly, include gloves and mittens made of leather and travel
items such as handbags. Certain types of footwear (TN VED group 64), hats (group 65), and
toys, games, and sports equipment (group 95) are also exempt.
LIGHT INDUSTRY
Mandatory labeling for light industry products, primarily items of clothing and linens, began
on January 1, 2021. All light industry products must have a DataMatrix code with a 14-digit
GTIN; a 13-digit serial number generated by the CRPT or the economic agent; a 4-digit verifi-
cation key from the CRPT; and a 44-digit verification code from the CRPT.
At the time of publication, rfxcel was the only official CRPT software or integration partner for
light industry.
Economic agents are responsible for obtaining codes in the following circumstances:
• Newly manufactured goods made in Russia
• All imported goods
• Leftover stock
• Returned goods with missing/lost codes
• Goods that need a code (e.g., if the original code was lost)
• Goods commissioned by individuals
New goods made in Russia must be marked before they leave the factory. For importation
from other EAEU countries (Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan), codes must be
applied before the goods enter Russia; for imports from all other countries, the codes are ap-
plied before customs processes begin. Furthermore, economic agents must create a “product
card” for the catalogue of marked goods before codes can be issued.
Steps for Registering Light Industry Products
• Create a product card. These must have four product attributes: product name, the 4-char-
acter TN VED code, the GTIN (if any), and trademark (if any).
• Order the codes: A unique code is required for every product. There are several ways order
codes. They easiest way is to import an XML file into Chestny ZNAK’s order management
system. Chestny ZNAK has an XML template.
• Obtain the codes. Codes are available as PDFs, Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files, and
comma-separated values (CSV) files. Recipients have 60 days from the time of approval to
obtain the codes, which can be printed on any kind of printer.
• Provide all additional required information. This varies by product and can include the prod-
uct category, product model, color, raw materials, and country of origin.
Economic agents must have an encrypted digital signature and equipment to handle codes,
including bar code scanners, printers, and point-of-sale cash registers connected to the inter-
net (for retail sales). They must also have a Chestny ZNAK account. Agents, though they can
use an integrator, such as rfxcel, to do the required work within the system.
At the time of publication, Chestny ZNAK reported that 127,332 supply chain participants had
been issued more than 1.3 billion codes.

MEDICATIONS 2
As of July 1, 2020, all medications, including over-the-counter medications, were required to
be labeled. Like the EU Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD) and the U.S. Drug Supply Chain
Security Act (DSCSA), Russian law requires a DataMatrix code on all individual units, with a
GTIN, a serial number, a batch number, and an expiration date.
As in other product categories, Russia requires a verification key and a verification code (i.e.,
crypto code). A TN VED code is also required. At the time of publication, Chestny ZNAK re-
ported 86, 178 supply chain participants had been issued almost 7 billion codes.
There are special requirements for aggregation and separate serialization requirements for
batches. Individual units must be serialized and a code must be placed on the box or bottle,
and each batch must also be serialized with a code on the box.
Aggregation requires supply chain stakeholders to report every change in individual batches.
Reports must be produced for each change made to a batch, and stakeholders must report
how much of the batch is left together and where the removed units went. Manufacturers
shoulder most of the reporting responsibility; foreign manufacturers have a more rigorous set
of requirements and can expect to be required to report up to 36 compliance events. By
comparison, the FMD has a maximum of seven compliance events.
Serialization is centralized through a database called the Federal State Information System
for Monitoring Drug Circulation (FSIS MDC). Manufacturers must onboard with the FSIS MDC
and report all serial numbers and batch numbers to it.
rfxcel is an official CRPT integration, software, and tested solution partner for medications.
“Notification mode” in effect until mid-2021
At the end of 2020, Russia’s Drug Circulation Monitoring System (MDLP) was compelled to
develop new reporting requirements after technical problems created serious issues in the
pharma supply chain.
In late October, the MDLP moved into so-called “notification mode” to help supply chain ac-
tors continue importing, distributing, and selling medicines in the event of errors or failures in

9Chestny ZNAK’s reporting system. This applied to over-the-counter and prescription medi-
cines manufactured in Russia or imported into the country, including from EAEU countries.
Then, in early November, Decree 1779 consolidated measures to simplify and expedite report-
ing. This is why notification mode has also been referred to as “simplification mode.”
In essence, stakeholders can proceed with distribution or dispensing 15 minutes after they
submit the required product information to the Government Information System for Marking
(GIS MT), which catalogs all marked goods, even if they do not receive confirmation that the
information has been accepted/approved in the system. (The “product information” pertains
to serialization requirements, such as serial numbers and GTINs.) The decree also simplifies
importation, giving custom officials a 2-hour window to request product information.
At the time of publication, notification mode was scheduled to remain in effect until July 1,
2021, and Chestny ZNAK reported that 86,579 supply chain participants had been issued
more than 7.2 billion codes.
PERFUMES
The pilot for perfumes and eau de toilette products was held from July 1 to November 30,
2019, and mandatory marking began on October 1, 2020. rfxcel is an official CRPT software
and integration partner for perfumes.

OKPD2 Code Description
20.42.11 Perfume and eau de toilette (excluding probes and testers)
Corresponding TN VED code: 3303 00
PHOTO CAMERAS & FLASHBULBS
Mandatory labeling for photo cameras and flashbulbs began on October 1, 2020. The cate-
gory includes only photo cameras; it does not include equipment that records moving images,
such as video cameras and camcorders. Flashtubes, also called flashlamps, are included under
10the umbrella term “flashbulbs.” At the time of publication, the CRPT had not announced any
software or integration partners for this product category.
As in other industries, companies must register with Chestny ZNAK and mark products with a
DataMatrix code that contains a 14-digit GTIN; a 13-digit serial number generated by the CRPT
or the economic agent; a 4-digit verification key from the CRPT; and a 44-digit crypto code
from the CRPT. At the time of publication, Chestny ZNAK reported 1,427 supply chain partici-
pants had been issued about 290,000 codes.
New goods made in Russia must be marked at the factory or a company storage facility. For
importation from EAEU countries, codes must be applied before the goods enter Russia; for
imports from all other countries, the codes are applied before customs processes begin. Fur-
thermore, economic agents must create a “product card” in the system’s catalogue of marked
goods before codes are issued.
CAMERAS (EXCLUDING CINEMATOGRAPHIC CAMERAS), PHOTO FLASHES & FLASH LAMPS
Mandatory labeling began October 1, 2020
OKPD2 Code Description

on microfilm, microfiche and other micro-carriers
26.70.14 Snapshot cameras and other cameras
26.70.17.110 Photo flashes
27.40.31 Photographic flash lamps, “cube” type photographic illuminators and similar prod-
ucts
Corresponding TN VED code: 9006 (not including 9006; 91 000 0, 9006; 99 000 0)
TIRES
Mandatory labeling for tires (technically “new pneumatic and rubber tires”) began on Novem-
ber 1, 2020. Only tires with OKPD2 and TN VED codes need to be marked. Tires that are inte-
grated into another product, such as a car or bicycle, or that are pre-assembled with a hub,
spokes, or rim, do not need to be marked. At the time of publication, rfxcel was the only
CRPT software or integration partner for tires.
Furthermore, based on the results of the pilot (June–November 2019), the government ex-
cluded several types of tires from the regulations, including new bicycle and aviation tires and
tire casings and rubber tubes, flaps, and interchangeable protectors. Retread/refurbished and
used tires are also exempt.
As with other industries, codes for tires must have a 14-digit GTIN; a 13-digit serial number
generated by the CRPT or the economic agent; a 4-digit verification key from the CRPT; and
a 44-digit crypto code from the CRPT.
Tires do not come in packaging, so labels must be
placed directly on the product. Manufacturers are re-
sponsible for ensuring they use an adhesive that will
stick to their products. Markings do not have to be af-
fixed in a certain location, but the industry seems to
have defaulted to placing them on the sides or on the
treads, as shown in the photos from Chestny ZNAK to
the right.
Before economic agents can request DataMatrix codes
for new products and leftover stock, they must submit
1115-point product descriptions to their personal GS1 account; if they’re registering only leftover
stock, they must submit a 5-point description to their Chestny ZNAK account.
The information required for these descriptions is similar to what’s required for perfumes,
though the full description goes to a much deeper level of detail, including the model, width,
height-to-width ratio, load capacity, speed category, and tire type by sealing method. The 5-
point description is limited to customs-centric information, such as the company’s TIN, the
GTIN and trademark (if any), tire model, and the product code.
At the time of publication, Chestny ZNAK reported 17,130 supply chain participants had been
issued a little more than 80.2 million codes.

TOBACCO
Two product groups are regulated under the “tobacco” category: cigarettes and “alternative
tobacco products.” As the table below shows, the latter category includes cigars, pipe to-
bacco, chewing tobacco, and snuff.

Cigarettes
The pilot for cigarettes began on January 15, 2015, and included both Russian and interna-
tional tobacco companies, distributors, and retailers. Chestny ZNAK has cited research that
12found that, in the first quarter of 2018, 7.7 percent of cigarettes on the Russian market were
illegal/counterfeit, up more than 3 percent from 2017.
According to official guidelines for the pilot dated December 25, 2017, three levels of ciga-
rette packaging must be marked. Single packs sold at retail must have a DataMatrix code with
three data groups: a 14-digit GTIN, a 7-digit serial number, and an 8-digit verification code.
“Group packages” (i.e., cartons) must have a GS1 DataMatrix code and shipping containers
must have a GS1-128 barcode.
Alternative Tobacco Products
Mandatory marking was introduced on July 1, 2020. Unmarked packages that are already in
the supply chain are allowed to circulate until July 1, 2021; after that, they will be illegal.
As with cigarettes, consumer-level packaging must have DataMatrix codes with a 14-digit
GTIN and a 7-digit serial number; however, the verification code is 4 digits, not 8 digits. There
are a few other differences as well:
• DataMatrix codes may be affixed directly to products at the unit level, such as individually
wrapped cigars and single boxes of snuff.
• The DataMatrix codes do not contain the minimum retail price.
• Authorities are considering a process for marking leftover stock and replacing damaged
labels.
• There will be additional steps/elements to calculate excise duty.
At the time of publication, Chestny ZNAK reported 108,423 supply chain participants had
been issued more than 15.6 billion codes. rfxcel is an official CRPT software and integration
partner for tobacco.
13ONGOING & SCHEDULED PILOTS
The only active pilots at the time of publication were for bottled drinking water and wheel-
chairs, both due to conclude on June 1 of this year. The government announced two new
pilots in October 2020 and February 2021, respectively: brewing products and low-alcohol
drinks, which includes beer and beer-based drinks, and biologically active food additives.
Both are scheduled to begin on April 1, 2021, and last about a year.

can include information such as the minimum retail price and expiration date. Product pack-
aging is required to have a blank field up to 15×15mm to accommodate the code.
Bottled water illustrates the three-stage approach the CRPT is taking to roll out regulations in
every industry. First is the preparatory stage to determine the best methods of applying
marking codes, set up the track and trace system for the product category, and conduct in-
dustry outreach.
Next is the pilot itself, with real-world testing and adjustments, sharing results with stakehold-
ers, and preparing for deployment. Last, the system goes live and all economic agents imple-
ment the system and comply with the regulations.
rfxcel is an official CRPT software and integration partner for bottled drinking water.

14WHEELCHAIRS
On November 22, 2017, Russia’ federal government passed legislation designed to develop a
set of measures to modernize the “rehabilitation products” industry. A few days later, on De-
cember 5, members of the government and supply chain stakeholders met with people with
disabilities and representatives of groups that support and advocate for them.
The legislation and first-hand input from people who would be affected by federal regulations
helped shape the pilot for wheelchairs, which began on September 1, 2019. The Ministry of In-
dustry and Trade, federal authorities, and pilot participants worked to develop milestones and
the methodology to test end-to-end traceability and prepare for mandatory marking.
Directed by the CRPT, the pilot is being conducted in two phases:
1. September 1, 2019–December 1, 2020: Testing for hand-powered wheelchairs
2. December 1, 2020–June 1, 2021: Testing for wheelchairs with an electric engine or other
mechanical means for locomotion.
The DataMatrix codes used in the pilot for hand-powered wheelchairs had to contain a 14-
digit GTIN, a 13-digit serial number generated by the CRPT or the economic agent, a 4-digit
verification key from the CRPT, and a 44-digit crypto code from the CRPT.
At the time of publication, rfxcel was the only official CRPT software or integration partner for
wheelchairs.

BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE FOOD ADDITIVES
At the time of publication, the Russian government had not released any substantive infor-
mation about the pilot other than what products will be labeled. We will provide updates

BREWING PRODUCTS & LOW-ALCOHOL DRINKS
Russia’s Ministry of Industry and Trade announced the pilot in October 2020. Scheduled for
April 1, 2021, to February 28, 2022, it will test labeling for products that are not required to
bear federal special and excise stamps.
The CRPT, industry representatives, regulators, retailers, and other stakeholders have been
discussing parameters, technical features, and timing. Progress reports are due to the govern-
ment on October 29 of this year and February 14 next year, and a final decision about when
mandatory labeling will begin will be made after a full review of the pilot.
Any company can volunteer to participate; however, the organizers have indicated they are
particularly interested in companies that use several packaging form factors and have more
than one product line. Companies that want to participate must send a letter of consent on
official letterhead to the Beer and Beer Drinks Commodity Group.
Information for manufacturers
The CRPT will assign a dedicated project manager, technical manager, and business process
specialist to every manufacturer in the pilot. These people will work at the manufacturer’s fa-
cilities and oversee pilot operations.
Manufacturers’ representatives are expected to attend working group meetings to discuss
progress and make recommendations for the regulatory framework, which will be finalized
after the pilot is over. Manufacturers are also expected to:
• Understand the business processes required for digital labeling
• Choose a technology partner to supply and install labeling and integration systems
• Determine how to apply the marking codes
• Determine what technical solution is most suitable for their production line(s)
• Arrange delivery and perform commissioning/start-up of labeling equipment
• Integrate the equipment with the Automated Control Systems of the Enterprise and Tech-
nological Process (ACSTP)
• Adapt their inventory systems to work with labeled goods
• Adapt their business processes to new requirements for digital marking
• Train key personnel to work with digital marking
• Ensure their suppliers are sufficiently prepared to work with digital marking
As with the other product categories regulated in Chestny ZNAK, manufacturers must follow
a few core steps for labeling and track and trace processes. First, they must register with
Chestny ZNAK. Next, they must describe their products in Russia’s catalog of marked goods,
which is managed by the Government Information System for Marking (GIS MT). Last, they
have to order unique codes for each item (or, in some cases, for a group of goods), and put a
DataMatrix code on each package, after which the goods may be to put into circulation and
transferred for sale to wholesale or retail networks.
17Information for retailers
Retailers must scan the DataMatrix codes when they accept goods. This sends the product
information to Chestny ZNAK and notifies the system that the products have arrived at the
retail location.
When a consumer purchases a product, the cashier scans the code on the packaging using a
scanner connected to a point-of-sale cash register. The data is synchronized with the catalog
of marked goods and the item is officially removed from circulation. If the data doesn’t match,
the product is deemed counterfeit or otherwise illegitimate and cannot be sold.
