King Charles's face to be axed from Australian $5 bank notes and replaced with pattern


King Charles’s face is set to be absent from a new $5 banknote – unless its citizens cause uproar over the move in a consultation that has been released. Current plans show the new notes will contain a design with an Aboriginal theme.

The move has been announced today (Friday, March 1) by The Reserve Bank of Australia and will mark the start of a new era after the late Queen Elizabeth II’s face was featured on the note since 1992, more than 30 years ago.
