Best Answer

Caroline Chisholm appeared on the reverse of the old paper Five Dollar notes from their introduction in 1967 until their withdrawal in 1992.

When we got the new polymer notes, a new design was made for each type and all Australian banknotes got new faces on them.

The new polymer Australian Five Dollar note first issued in 1992, has Queen Elizabeth II on the front and old and new Parliament houses on the reverse.

The Centenary of Federation Five Dollar note issued only in 2001, featured Sir Henry Parkes on the front and Catherine Helen Spence on the reverse.

Caroline Chisholm had been dead for 90 years when she first appeared on the Australian Five Dollar note in 1967.

Had she still been alive in 1967, she would have been 159 years old.

Why is there an HH stamped on Australian Two Dollar coins?

No. Only the 1988 and 1989 Australian 2 Dollar coins have HH on them. HH is the initials of the designer (Horst Hahne) of the reverse side of the coin. All years of the Australian Two Dollar coin are potentially still in circulation and are therefore worth Two Dollars, unless they are Mint Uncirculated or Proof coins. The initials do not make the coin worth any more or less.

I was a trailblazing member of Congress whose actions led the way for leaders such as President Barack Obama. In 1972 I became the first person of color to run for president as a Democrat. Who am I?

You may be referring to New York congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, and if you are, I actually worked on one of her campaigns. Dynamic and very impressive person, excellent speaker, and sad to say, not taken seriously as a candidate (she was a few years ahead of her time). But in a way, it's true that she was part of the process of both female candidates and candidates of color being taken more seriously, and eventually that did lead to successful campaigns such as President Obama's.
