2019 - Here I have a complete collection of all Australian polymer notes (single note) issued since 1988, including all commemorative / numismatic notes, joint issues and special serial numbered issues. The only set that I do not have, at the moment, is the 1998 $10 Portraits AA98/AB98 (with or without frame). This $10 Portrait set was a failure at that time and the series was later withdrawn as it was not popular among collectors. The price was not right then for me too and that was why I didn't buy them. It was the NPA intention then to release all portrait sets on a yearly basis starting with the $10 note and collectors were also given the opportunity to get them all with matching serial numbers too. Unfortunately this was not to be the case.

* Australian banknotes are also the official currency of Christmas Island, Norfolk Islands, Keeling and Cocos Islands, Kiribati, Nauru and Tuvalu. The Australian banknotes were also once circulating as an official currency of Hebrides (Vanuatu), Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands prior to gaining independence. *

.Australia - 1988 $10 Bicentenary Commemorative Folder

Australia

1988 $10 Bicentenary Commemorative Folder Issue
Signatures
Governor - Robert Alan 'Bob' Johnstone
Secretary - Bernard William 'Bernie' Fraser

This is the $10 Bicentenary commemorative folder issue celebrating the 200th year of European settlement in Australia. A total of 800,000 folders issued at a selling price of $14 per set. I believe this was not a successful issue due to the quantity issued. The first prefix for this series is AA00 and the last prefix is AA23. Below I have uploaded both the first and last prefix notes. All notes are printed with the date of 26.01.1988.

Ten Dollars, ND1988

  2. Hi,

    Sorry, I am not an expert in banknotes value. You should try the latest catalogue or a local dealer.

    Cheers
