The Australian 5-dollar note was first issued on 29 May 1967, one year after the currency was changed from the Australian pound to the :Australian dollar on 14 February 1966. It was a new denomination, as the pound system had no £2½, with a new mauve colouration. ==Series == There have been four different issues of this denomination: * a paper note which had a gradient of mauve, with a distinct black overprint. * The first Polymer banknote issue, which can be recognised for its distinct mauve colouration and numeral font, was first issued in pale mauve (1992). A number of people found it difficult to distinguish from the $10 banknote, especially in poor lighting conditions. * In 1995, a second polymer issue was created, distinguishable by its deeper shade and different font for the numeral. * A federation commemorative was issued in 2001 for that year only. Notes featured Sir Henry Parkes on the obverse and Catherine Helen Spence on the reverse. The initial paper five-dollar note was designed by Gordon Andrews, with Russell Drysdale as the Reserve Bank of Australia’s artistic advisor. This note featured portraits of Sir Joseph Banks and Caroline Chisholm, as well as elevations of Sydney streets from Joseph Fowles’ "Sydney in 1848", the cover of the Shipping Gazette, a watercolour of the Waverley, and a handbill of a meeting of the Family Colonization Loan Society. All of these images were sourced from the State Library of New South Wales. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Australian five-dollar note」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
