Australia says it will replace portrait of Queen Elizabeth II from its A$5 currency note with a new design to reflect and honour history of its Indigenous culture
Move is hailed by nation's republican movement, which noted Indigenous people predated British settlement by 65,000 years.
Australia's central bank has announced it will erase the British monarch from its banknotes, replacing the late Queen Elizabeth II's image on its $5 note with a design honouring Indigenous culture. The decision to leave the late queen's successor Charles III off the $5 note means no Britain-based monarch will remain on Australia's paper currency — a move hailed by the nation's republican movement, which noted Indigenous people predated British settlement by 65,000 years.
