==Forms== A hechsher may be a printed and signed certificate displayed at a commercial venue or on a media advertisement advising the consumer that the subjected product is [[kosher]]. Such certificates usually display the name of the rabbinical court issuing the hechsher, the name of the business or product, date of issue, expiry date and stamp of rabbi who issued the certificate. It may also be a [[certification mark]]ing on individual retail packaging of items which have been certified as Kosher. This marking is usually a basic stamp or emblem indicating the issuing rabbinical court. Modern hechsherim display sophisticated holograms and seals which are hard to forge.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://forward.com/news/9003/kosher-goes-high-tech-in-fraud-fight/|title=Kosher Goes High Tech in Fraud Fight|work=The Jewish Daily Forward|date=24 November 2006|access-date=27 April 2018|author=Popper, Nathaniel}}</ref>
