Australia's pre-decimal currency


Backward Glances, which appears daily in Grafton's Daily Examiner, is a very popular column with the paper's readers. The column contains snippets of news that appeared in the Examiner 50 years ago.


However, Monday 22 September's Backward Glances had readers scratching their heads about the currency Australians used prior to 14 February 1966.


Perhaps The Examiner has an Austrian on the pay roll.
