RESERVE BANK OF AUSTRALIA - $5  Polymer plastic Banknote Issued 2016.

This $5 Banknote is printed on Polymer plastic in Grey, Yellow, Pink and Violet with some other Multicolour. The face of the note has Seed heads of Acacia verticillata or Prickly Moses Wattle at the centre, bordering the note's transparent security strip, at the left of this is an image of an Eastern Spinebill bird. Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait is just right of centre and there is a holographic image of a gum flower in a clear window at the lower right.

The reverse shows an image of the Parliament of Australia building, located in Canberra at the left side. There are many security features used on this note some for the first time they include - a shadow image of the Australian Coat of Arms, which is visible under other printing when the note is held up to light; a pointed star with four points on the obverse and three on the reverse that come together under light; a clear window that has a stylised gum flower showing. The word Australia at the lower right on the face is in raised print plus there is a raised  single spot for the visually impaired.

The note is signed on the face by Glenn R Stevens as Governor – he served between 2006 and 2016 and John A Fraser as Secretary to the Treasury – he served between 2015 and 2018, the signatures appear at the lower left on the face of the note.  

The reverse also has Serial Number CK 160217980 at the left side running up the note Vertically. NB The illustrated note has a slightly different Serial Number from the note being sold, this is because the new security features on this note prevented scanning - so I only made a photograph of one of the notes.

The note is sized 130 × 65mm. 

The note has seen no circulation at all, it is crisp, bright and clean, as issued, therefore grades in superb Uncirculated condition.

Some deliveries may take longer than normal to arrive, this is not my fault, merely the result of the RECENT problems since March 2020, experienced within the International Postal System !  

Although now, even though the International Postal system is almost back to normal again, there still can be the odd delay to some destinations.                                                                                                                                                                             ________________________________________________                                                         ________________________________________________________________________________
