Note Printing Australia and the Reserve Bank released only 800 rare banknote portfolios to commemorate the 25th anniversary of decimal currency in 1991. Each portfolio includes one of the last 1,000 ten shilling, one pound, five pounds, and ten pound notes ever printed, alongside the first series of one to one hundred dollar notes. Taken from Reserve Bank archives, these notes feature matched serial numbers and are highly collectible.

The portfolios are elegantly designed, featuring archival material and signatures from key Reserve Bank officials, making them not only valuable as collectibles but also as heirlooms. The rarity of fully matched serial numbers enhances their appeal, as it is incredibly rare to encounter a variety of banknotes all with matching serial numbers. This commemorative collection stands as a testament to Australia’s monetary evolution.
