The notes of the Australian dollar were first issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia on 14 February 1966, when Australia changed to decimal currency and replaced the pound with the dollar.[1] This currency was a lot easier for calculating compared to the previous Australian pound worth 20 shillings or 240 pence.
