Australian Currency

Australia changed from pounds shillings and pence in 1966 to the current decimal currency
system. Many of our pre-decimal coins had a silver content in them. Many of our current
decimal coins have had various different motifs changed on them over the years making
them collectible by many. The notes also changed from a paper type to the current plastic
type.
