Best Answer

Australia first issued its own banknotes in 1913, three years after the issue of its first coins in 1910.

Private banks operating in Australia issued their own banknotes as early as 1817.

In 1910, the government assumed responsibilty for these privately issued banknotes and overprinted them. These notes were progressively withdrawn from circulation from 1913 onwards.
