The Australian one-hundred-dollar note was first issued in 1984 as a paper note.[2] There have been two different issues of this denomination: initially a very light turquoise-blue paper note, and from May 1996, a green polymer note.[3] Since the start of issue there have been six signature combinations. Two other combinations were not issued.[citation needed]
