G'day, get out uour best magnifier and have a close look at each note.
$5: The horizontal lines on the top left of the obverse are very fine printing
$10: the block around Patterson's hat is the text of one of his poems, in very fine printing.
Your $20 has an "AA" prefix, which some collectors find more appealling.
You mention the 1988 $10, the "trial" note. I think they are probably our most pleasing design: a real thing of beauty.
The only "problem" with polymers is that once creased, they stay creased. So, I urge you to keep them very flat.
My equal-favourites are the $100, but I don't get to see them very often.
