Everyone's Taking The Piss Out Of The New $5 Note

    ~JAZZ HANDS~

    The Reserve Bank has revealed Australia's new $5 note, and, well...

    The new design features the Prickly Moses wattle and the Eastern Spinebill, a native bird. They'll be introduced on September 1, which is National Wattle Day, apparently.

    The new designs also feature anti-counterfeit technology and a new 'tactile' feature to help vision impaired people. The colour, size and people featured on the note will all remain the same.

    It also looks like they've digitally altered the queen's face to make her look a little older.

    The new $5 bill is covered in... E. coli bacteria?
