The Australian Ten Shilling note had "Half Sovereign" printed on them from 1915 to 1933. To get a valuation, please provide the serial number and the names of the two signatories.
The only "Australian" Sovereigns were minted at the Sydney Mint between 1853 and 1870. These have "SYDNEY MINNT" and "AUSTRALIA" clearly inscribed on the reverse. Any other Sovereign circulating in Australia would have been a British Sovereign minted to the British pattern. These may have been minted in either the London, Melbourne, Perth or Sydney Mints.
We have an Australian flag to represent the country, like every other sovereign nation.

Other than British gold coins such as the Half-Sovereign, Sovereign, etc., Australia has never produced "Australian" gold coins for general circulation in Australia. The Sovereign coinage minted for Britain were minted to the British pattern from gold mined in Australia and were minted at either of the Melbourne, Perth or Sydney Mints (Mintmarks M, P or S respectively).
A Sovereign has a face value of One Pound (GBP). In today's currency, a quarter of a Sovereign would be 25 Pence.
There has never been any Sovereign coinage in the Australian currency. The only coins of the Sovereign range circulating in Australia would have been British coins. Australia had yet to get its own currency in 1905, the first coins being issued in 1910. The Melbourne, Perth and Sydney Mints often produced Sovereign coinage, but these were British coins minted to the British pattern. The only identifying distinction is a very small "M", "P" or "S" mintmark on the reverse near the date.
There were no 1981 British Half-Sovereign minted.
The was never a British 10 Shilling coin minted. A Half-Sovereign was the equivalent of 10 Shillings.
A Sovereign is Sterling coin. In 1880 a Sovereign was worth a Sovereign or One Pound. It's face value has not changed since it was reintroduced into the currency in 1817.
The Sovereign is a coin, not a value. It does not have a symbol. The value of the Sovereign is One Pound. In the pre-decimal currency, it was also equal to One Pound (or 20 Shillings).
The Sovereign was not reintroduced into the British currency until 1817.
