The Australian Coat of Arms does not appear on the Centenary of Federation Five Dollar note.

On the standard issue Five Dollar note, it appears as a "shadow image" which can be seen if you hold the note up to good light.

The Coat of Arms can just be seen if you look at the space between the gum leaves and the vertical writing of "Australia", level with the Queen's forehead.
