The 2001 Centenary of Federation $5 banknote was issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Australian nationhood – achieved on January the 1st, 1901. A unique, one-year-only type, the 2001 Centenary of Federation $5 is the second of only two Australian commemorative note types, and the only commemorative $5.
A key acquisition under any circumstances, this landmark note is a must-have when available in strictly Uncirculated pairs bearing consecutive serial numbers!
Unique, one-year-only type
Given that the 2001 Centenary of Federation $5 honoured the birth of Australia, it was appropriate that this unique note paid tribute to individuals who made significant contributions to the march to nationhood. Sir Henry Parkes, the ‘Father of Federation’ was pictured on the front of the note, with pioneering journalist, novelist, social reformer and politician Catherine Helen Spence on the back.
Seldom seen in change…
As with commemorative coins, the 2001 Centenary of Federation $5 note was hoarded out of circulation. Consequently, it is virtually never seen in change today. Even if you were lucky enough to find this note, it would not be in pristine condition – as presented here.
Uncirculated Consecutive Pairs!
Straight from an original bundle, this is your chance to secure the 2001 Centenary of Federation $5 in impeccable Uncirculated quality. Better yet, this is a limited window of opportunity to secure this crucial Australian note in Consecutive Pairs! With limited stock available, however, you must press add to cart now!
