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 This $10 Portrait set was a failure at that time and the series was later withdrawn as it was not popular among collectors.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 - 1998 NPA and RAM Notes and Coins Collection Set Series (Prefix ZZ98)

Australia

1998 NPA and RAM Joint Issue
Signatures
Governor - Ian John Macfarlane
Secretary - Edward Alfred 'Ted' Evans

This is the second special joint venture issue between NPA and the Royal Australian Mint (RAM). The set consists of a full set of five banknotes and also a set of coins all printed with the year of 1998. The coins on this set are all proof sets and only 1000 sets issued. This is a reduction from the similar issue where 1500 sets were issued for the 1997 edition. Special matching serial numbered sets all printed with ZZ98 prefix on the notes but these are not replacement notes. The joint venture only lasted two years and it is not sure why it was discontinued. Perhaps it was not popular among collectors. The issue price was $425 per set. Each set comes with a certificate of Authenticity and is signed by the Managing Director of NPA.
