Claim:
1. A security element with an optically variable structure having a multiplicity of first embossed structures, each of the first embossed structures comprising a prism including at least two flanks which converge at least one certain angle, and in at least one first partial region of the optically variable structure, at least one flank of the first embossed structures respectively has at least one additional embossed portion which extends from the flank of the first embossed structures or extends from a depression in the flank of the first embossed structures, wherein the geometry of the at least one additional embossed portion is executed so as to correspond to the shape of a half of the prism defined by the flank opposite the flank to which the additional embossed structure is applied, the geometry of the at least one additional embossed portion being further executed to be at least near-inverse to the geometry of that flank of the first embossed structure from which the at least one additional embossed portion extends.
