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 This $10 Portrait set was a failure at that time and the series was later withdrawn as it was not popular among collectors.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 - 1999 Reprints First Prefix

Australia

1999 $50 and $100 Reprint
Signatures
Governor - Ian John Macfarlane
Secretary - Edward Alfred 'Ted' Evans

These are the only two notes of $50 and $100 both printed in 1999. Because of the potential of the millennium bugs that may affect the country's electronic banking system, NPA printed these two high denominations of banknotes in case we had a melt down with the banking system. Fortunately nothing happened and we then see a lot of these notes circulating in the economy. Since then the $100 was not reprinted until in 2008.
