Typo on Aussie $50 brings blushes for central bank

The Reserve Bank has confirmed a spelling mistake has been made on 46 million new Australian $50 notes. The typo misspells the word ‘responsibility’.

Red-faced bank bosses in Australia admitted to an embarrassing error Thursday, revealing their state-of-the-art $50 (Sh3500) note had a typo.

The yellow and green note, which is worth around US$35, came into circulation last October. It has multiple security features -- including microprint of a speech by Australia's first female parliamentarian, Edith Cowan.
