This star note has fresh and original paper quality.
The Phillips Randall $1 star replacement note is arguably Australia's most affordable star replacement note - decimal or pre-decimal.
John Grant Phillips was Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia between July 23rd, 1968 and July 22nd, 1975, while Sir Richard John Randall was Secretary to the Treasury from October 28th, 1966 until October 31st, 1971.
$1 notes with this signature combination were issued over a shorter period than that - between November 1st, 1969 and May 1st, 1972.
The mintage of the regular $1 notes with these two signatures was 299,100,000, whereas the mintage of the Phillips Randall $1 star replacement note is 683,000.
The ratio of star notes to regular notes for the Phillips Randall $1 was 438 to 1.
Although the R73s is arguably Australia's most affordable star replacement note, it doesn't have the highest star to regular note ratio, nor does it have the highest mintage.
