    Australian central bank new A$50 bill missed its “responsiblity”

    It took seven months for the public to notice “responsibility” was repeatedly miss-spelt in the text of Cowan's 1921 maiden speech.

    Red-faced bank bosses in Australia admitted to an embarrassing error on Thursday, revealing their state-of-the-art A$50 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.
