Nothing spectacular but it caught my attention.
Heavy ink on the 0 and colour alignment out a couple of mm to the left.
(upper arrow, where it is, lower is where it should be).

In pretty good nick for a 95. Im guessing it isnt from recent circulation
Interesting that 0's on both serials are 'smudgy'.

It's an 09 note Matt & yes it is interesting that the same 0 in both numbers is smudged.
omg i must be losing it.....
Hmmm.. the 1930 Penny doctors had a go at changing it from an 8 to a 0 maybe? :diablo:
Seriously though, you must have too much time on your hands... no way I'd ever spot something like that. :)
What Fulvio, not even with your x20 spyglass....hehehe
Quotenot even with your x20 spyglass
:laugh2:
I don't get to noodle too many notes but I always read the serial number, since it was 00 the second one stood out like the proverbial. :angel:

And no, I don't bother with notes. Hard enough just to check serial numbers.
Nice find Uni :good: and I agree with Robster, very strange to get both :scratch_one-s_head:
I have one the same except its. 3 that's smudged
Cool ..... is your's a 2009 note as well Cooper S?
2008 do u know why they are like it?
No, sorry Cooper S, it's still a mystery to me.
Is your's smudged on the same number in both sets of numbers too?
No only one serial number do you know if there was any fake $50 getting around
I only ask this cause a while back I got a fift dollar not and underneath Edith Cowan there was no name where as when I compared it to another fifty dollar note there was a name underneath
The names on the polymer notes where added from 2002 onwards I think. Prior to that they were "un-named".
oh ok thanks for the knowledge

"There were also two design modifications introduced with this new series of notes.
Signatures
On previous issues the signature of the Secretary to the Treasury appeared above that of the Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia. This was reversed from this issue.
Portraits
The names of the people portrayed on the notes had their names printed underneath their portrait and included as part of the design."

"Notes : No circulation $50 dollar notes were issued in 2000, 2001, or 2002."

Just to clarify ..... I meant polymer notes in general not just $50's. :angel:
(The first of the $10, $20 polymer to have names were 2002.)
