Incomplete Banknotes
A banknote with a significant piece missing is classified as incomplete. These banknotes may not be worth full value because the Reserve Bank needs to take into account the possibility that pieces of the banknote may be presented for value separately. The Reserve Bank’s policy is for the value of each piece of a banknote to be proportional to the part of the banknote remaining. In this way, the combined value paid for all the pieces presented should be the face value of the original banknote.
Subject to the Reserve Bank’s Claim Requirements, the Reserve Bank pays value for incomplete banknotes determined as follows:
If less than 20 per cent of the banknote is missing: Full face value is paid.
If between 20 and 80 per cent of the banknote is missing: Value is paid in proportion with the percentage remaining, e.g. $5 value for half of a $10 banknote.
If more than 80 per cent of the banknote is missing: No value is paid.
