A fine-concave-convex transfer mold with which defect regions of a molded body having a fine-concave-convex structure can be easily identified, and deformation of the fine-concave-convex structure can be inhibited even if the molded product is wound. A mold for the production of an optical article has, provided to a surface thereof, a plurality of convex portions at a cycle equal to or less than the wavelengths of visible light, and a plurality of concave portions formed between the adjacent convex portions. The mold has a surface provided with a transfer area having concave portions and convex portions that have a size and shape complementing the convex portions and the concave portions of the optical article. The mold can include, in the transfer area, marking portions. The height of the convex portions in the transfer area is less than the height of convex portions in sections other than the transfer area.
