The ink from a Sharpie® Calligraphic Metallic Marker, Silver (you can get one at Staples on-line) should show up nicely on an x-ray scanner.

What’s really great is that in a Google search of “Freedom Bag” these come up in the top position, even though there are companies that have been using the “Freedom Bag” name for some time now (freedombag.com) Nice.
