Notes:

In 1994, Note Printing Australia began the practice of incorporating the year of manufacture as part of the serial number - the two digits following the first two letters in the prefix. For the collector market, the first serial numbers each year are issued in specially prepared folders.

The success of the polymer note program in improving the longevity of notes released into circulation meant that there was no need to print $10 notes for circulation in 1995. As a consequence, 1995 $10 notes can be obtained only from collector issues.

The first batch of 900 notes from AA 95 000101 to AA 95 001000 were printed with red serial numbers and issued in a Premium Folder. The second batch of 9,000 notes with serial numbers from AA 95 001001 to AA 95 010000 were printed with blue serial numbers and distributed in a 'Deluxe' Folder.

While each 1995 $10 Deluxe Folder was released individually, collectors were given the opportunity to acquire one of each of the three 1995 deluxe collector folders - $5, $10 and $20 - with matching serial numbers. The number of matching sets was limited to 6,000 - the number of $20 Deluxe Folders issued - with serial numbers between AA 95 1001 and AA 95 007000.
