Abstract

A security element for manufacturing value documents has a structure including first and second motifs which change their appearance when the security element is tilted over a tilting angle range. The structure has first micro-elements, which are arranged with a first pattern and a first motif, and second micro-elements, which are arranged with a second pattern and a second motif. The first and second patterns are nested within each other on an areal region of the security element and have different visual appearances according to the tilting of the securing element.
