Australia $1 Last Note & First Coin Uncirculated Pack
Underpinned by superb quality and an all-new presentation pack, we are delighted to present the new Australia $1 Last Note & First Coin Uncirculated Pack!
The first Australian currency issue to honour Indigenous culture, Australia’s paper $1 note was first issued at decimalisation in 1966, and last issued from 1982. The last Australian $2 note carried the facsimile signatures of Bob Johnston, Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, and John Stone, Secretary to the Treasury. The demise of the $1 note was attributable to the impact of inflation, and the greater durability and cost-effectiveness of its ultimate replacement – the aluminium-bronze $1 coin.
Although the removal of the much-loved $1 note created some controversy, the new $1 coin quickly endeared itself to the Australian public. Apart from being the first to carry Stuart Devlin’s superb ‘Mob of Kangaroos’ design, the utterly unique 1984 $1 is also notable as the only circulating Australian $1 coin to carry the original decimal portrait of Queen Elizabeth II – designed by Arnold Machin.
Representing a major milestone on the highway of Australian currency history, the Last Note, First Coin $1 Pack unites these crucial issues – with both in unused, pristine Uncirculated quality! You will never be able to secure the $1 note from circulation now, regardless of the grade, whilst the 1984 Mob of Roos $1 will never be found in change in the superb state of preservation seen here.
Preserving the impeccable Uncirculated quality for the long-term, Australia’s last $1 note and first $1 coin are set behind archival bubble, and housed in a superbly designed ALL-NEW illustrated, informative pack. As impressive as the presentation is the price.

"This item conveys to me heritage of my Australia. The Aboriginal art reminiscent of the staples shown at school, the brown and white, bark and earth found when young, but the paper dollar note removed so often from memory, a stark (memory) outside of your head. Then the first dollar coin, the only year the particular portrait was used on the dollar, obviously too, the introduction of the mob of roos. Thanks very much, once more a great collector's item from downies."
