The symbol for the Australian Dollar is "$," but to avoid confusion with other currencies, it is often abbreviated as "A$." The AUD is subdivided into 100 cents. Coins in circulation include 5, 10, 20, 50 cents, and $1 and $2 denominations, while notes are available in $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 denominations.
