Once they correct the mistake, those notes will be worth a fortune to collectors in a couple decades. Collectors love errors. And since the history is well documented online you get a bonus of free provenance.

They don't plan to recall them. Collectors love errors mainly because they're rare. There's 480 million of these and they'll never be worth much more than 50 AUD.
This is the appropriate response to an error: "nobody died". I can't help but wonder what would have been the response if this happened in the US? I assume a full news cycle would be taken up with opportunistic politicians trying to score points by ascribing blame to their enemies.

With inflation, they'll be worth less than 50 AUD. :)
Not nearly as bad as the Canadian $20 note depicting a Norwegian maple leaf (7 points) instead of a Canadian maple (5 points).
After all, we -Norsemen, that is- were there way before the British and French.

Well, that one at least makes sense historically. After all, we -Norsemen, that is- were there way before the British and French. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%27Anse_aux_Meadows :)
