Questions 1: I noticed different signature on 3 of the notes. Is that normal and where can I find more information about it. Far left serial starts with AE, middle is CI and right side is FI Question 2: Does the ink smudge (I don't know correct term/ name) on the far left note worth any premium? Serial starts with AE I'm totally green in Australian Note so any information would be grateful Report this Post to the Staff

Example error or particular year or serial number? Report this Post to the Staff

Carl, if you don't already have one, I would recommend picking up a recent edition of Renniks Australian Coin & Banknote Values as a useful reference. Report this Post to the Staff
karloning Valued Member Australia 401 Posts	Posted 11/07/2020 6:18 pm I am not a collector of notes and don't follow the numbering/lettering - but I do know that 'radars' are often collectible. That is where the serial number reads the same backwards or forwards. EG. 134565431 Report this Post to the Staff

Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 11/10/2020 01:36 am The second prefix letter only goes to M (except for some test notes in 1996 and 1997 and some notes in sets in the late 1990s). The RBA website has signatory information somewhere from memory. Report this Post to the Staff
