Description
Australia’s $1 note featuring Queen Elizabeth II was part of the country’s currency series before it was replaced by the $1 coin in 1984. The note was originally issued as part of Australia’s polymer banknote series and was in circulation from 1966 until the transition to coins.
Queen Elizabeth II appeared on the obverse side of the $1 banknote, alongside an image of a young Elizabeth in her coronation robes, while the reverse side featured Australian fauna, such as a bird or other native animals, depending on the specific design of the note.
The $1 banknote with Queen Elizabeth II is no longer in circulation but is considered a collector’s item for numismatists and those interested in the history of Australian currency.
