This invention relates to a method and the relevant device used to implement such a method, for the identification of documents and banknotes marked with OVI TM (Optical Variable Inks). The above-mentioned device is apt to: .cndot. generate a white light ray (full spectrum) between 5,000° and 7,000°K, with a light intensity of at least 30,000 mcd; .cndot. polarize that white light ray through a first polarizing filter (3), and send the polarized ray (4) onto an area (5) to be assessed; .cndot. filter the ray (6) reflected by the area (5) to be assessed by means of a second polarizing filter (7), in phase consistency with the first polarizing filter (3) and getting a first signal (s a) by measuring its luminous intensity; .cndot. filter the ray (6) reflected by the area (5) to be assessed by means of a third polarizing filter (8), in anti-phase with the first polarizing filter (3), and getting a second signal (s b) by measuring its luminous intensity; .cndot. measure the difference .DELTA. between these two signals; .cndot. compare the calculated value .DELTA. to a reference value .DELTA.r previously measured on genuine documents and banknotes, providing a signal depending on the genuineness or not of the assessed document or banknote.
