The changeover to decimal currency was a symbolic and practical part of this. The government's public education campaign, with the adorable cartoon character \"Dollar Bill\", helped Australians make the changeover on 14 February 1966 without a hitch.

The original round, and 80 per cent silver, 50c coin was updated to cupronickel and given its distinctive 12 sided dodecagon shape from 1969. The $1 coin was introduced in 1984, followed by the $2 coin in 1988.
