The Greek drachma, particularly during its ancient and classical periods, typically contained a significant amount of silver. For example, the Athenian drachma, widely used in ancient Greece, was made of approximately 94% silver, weighing about 4.3 grams. However, it's important to note that the silver content varied over time and across different regions and periods, especially in later versions of the drachma.

The value of a 500,000 Greek drachma note in Australian dollars (AUD) depends on the current exchange rate and the collectible market for old currency. As of the euro's introduction in 2002, the drachma is no longer in circulation. Generally, the note may have a nominal value of around AUD 200-300, but its actual worth can vary based on condition and demand among collectors. For an accurate valuation, it's best to check with a currency exchange or numismatic dealer.
