Abstract
In an areal security element having microreflectors, in particular for manufacturing value documents such as bank notes, cheques or the like, the areal security element has a principal plane and the microreflectors present at least one object which upon tilting and/or rotating the security element has a motion effect which is related to the principal plane. It is provided that the security element has at least a first and a second microreflector pattern which differ from each other both with respect to the object it presents and with respect to the motion effect produced, wherein the first microreflector pattern is configured such that the motion effect runs at least partly perpendicular to the principal plane, and the second microreflector pattern is configured such that the motion effect runs in the principal plane or parallel thereto.
