Australian coins and notes
Australia has six coins. The silver coins are 5c, 10c and 20c, which get bigger as they are worth more, and the 50c, which has twelve sides. The gold coins are $1 and $2, and the $2 coin is the smaller one. Size does not tell you value: both gold coins are worth more than any silver coin. Notes have different colours: $5 pink, $10 blue, $20 red, $50 yellow and $100 green.
