The Australian one-pound note was the most prevalent banknote in circulation with the pound series, with the last series of 1953–66 having 1,066 million banknotes printed.[2] The first banknotes issued were superscribed notes purchased from 15 banks across Australia and printed with Australian Note and were payable in gold. Upon decimalisation in 1966, it was worth two dollars.
