Australia's decimal conversion on 14 February 1966 — "Decimal Day" — replaced the pound with the dollar at a rate of two dollars to one pound. This 1 Dollar note entered circulation on that date as part of the first decimal series, a coordinated replacement of the entire note stock within a matter of weeks. The logistics were unprecedented for the country.
David Malangi Yunupingu, an Arnhem Land artist, was not commissioned for his contribution to the reverse vignette — he was only identified and compensated after the note had already entered circulation, when an anthropologist recognized the design. He eventually received a monetary settlement and an engraved medallion.
