Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.

Pound sign
I reverted your edit because the symbol you tried to use is not a pound sign, it is a lira sign. Whether a pound sign is written with one or two bars is a type-design choice, no doubt you already know that the same goes for the dollar sign: see allograph. For background, see pound sign. This issue is not unique to Australia: people in the UK who went to school before the mid 70s learned to write with two bars and later kids learnt one-bar. When writing a price sign in a market, it doesn't matter but if you use the wrong symbol in a computer system, it is likely to be misinterpreted.

However, there is currently nothing on the Australian pound article that mentions the shape of pound sign used, so you might like to add a sentence or two in the banknote section?

Finally, please don't be discouraged by having your first edits reverted: this is how Wikipedia works (see WP:Bold, revert, discuss). You can spend weeks studying the Manual of Style or do like most people and just bump into things until you get the hang of it. Welcome again to Wikipedia. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 10:47, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
