What's the serial number? Saw a few posts that it's a pretty low number.

I've only found one too. Good work

My mate handed to me for shrubs and I told him of the notes potential importance. He didn't care.

Nice, still haven't seen one here, though I don't think any have been reported in South East Queensland.

I got my first Lowe/Fraser 2019 $20 in change somewhere in Brissie yesterday. BI190024285.

Condition is reasonable, very light fold.

What makes it the long signature variety?
What distinguishes from "short" signature?

It's the actual length of the signatures.

Lowe/Fraser is the long signature, and Lowe/Gaetjens is the short one.

My son gave me a 2nd Lowe/Fraser $20 note last night, 2 very prominent folds unfortunately.

Still a keeper though.

Serial No. BB190048922

That is very sweet of your young fella.

I'm still hunting for my 2nd.

Happy with the 1 I have but another 1 or 2 would be fine.

Nice, I'll have to keep my eyes out - I'm sure someone said they were only in Victoria but clearly they're spreading.

Looks like around 10 million of the old and 173 million of the new: https://www.coincuriosity.com/view/...ar-note.html
Not overly rare.

Interesting. Thanks.

I wonder if we can trust those figures.

Numbers are from the Reserve Bank website - I'd hope they're reasonably accurate.

Do they use the same serial numbers but with different prefixes?

i.e. AA 19 0189258 and EA 19 0189258
