Also known as the Reserve Bank of Australia the museum is free and has an excellent permanent collection as well as some great exhibitions including the role of banks in WWI and the 50th anniversary of the revolution, which I still don't fully understand but was very interesting. As a novice collector of world currency, notes and coins, as well as an avid traveller and adventurer, I found the whole thing very interesting and spent about 3 hours here in total. If you enjoy collecting currency or just want a nice place to spend a few hours in air conditioned luxury surrounded by money, then this is the place to come.
The Australian Currency and Securities Museum in Sydney is a museum specializing in the issuance of Australian currency and securities. Here you can see gold coins from more than 1,000 years ago to today's securities and electronic trading systems. It is the best place to get a comprehensive understanding of the Australian monetary system.
We thought we'd check out this museum and were glad we did. It's free to visit and covers all aspects of Australian monetary history, from the first settlements, including the Reserve Bank and its predecessor the Commonwealth Bank. We learned a lot and spent about two hours there. We thoroughly recommend.
The Australian Monetary and Securities Museum, located on the first floor of the Reserve Bank of Australia in Martin Square, is a free museum for visitors. The museum displays a lot of currencies and securities of different periods in Australia. It can understand the history of Australia's financial development and is worth taking some time to see.
