Australia puts famous or historically significant Australian identities on its banknotes.

The current polymer Australian Ten Dollar note has Andrew Barton (Banjo) Patterson (balladist & journalist) on the front and Dame Mary Gilmore (poet & human rights campaigner) on the back.

Banjo Paterson wrote some of Australia's best known poems including "Waltzing Matilda", "The Man From Snowy River" and "Clancy of the Overflow".

He was a war correspondent during the Boer War and others, an ambulance driver during WW1 and later served as an officer in the front lines in France where he was wounded.
