Re: A Trivial Puzzle - March 2013
Ok ... I thought it was a trick question too and that it was the blue one, I then just quickly checked the rest to see if there was another and didn't find one. So scratch my original time. I did find the other one once I realised this, but it took way longer than 30 seconds. You would think I'd be used to seeing the dollar sign by now.
Rik: I hadn't noticed a lack of $ symbols in Australia for the dollar. AFAIK it's the same as for here, in New Zealand, and of course the US. Although you do see them written as AUS$ (plus variations of) and NZ$ as well sometimes. Unless I've misunderstood your question.
Regards
Su

The symbol for the Australian dollar is $
But I mean't I have trouble finding the dollars (to pay the bills) ;)

I don't have any Australian notes, but when I looked on-line, I couldn't find any with any $ symbols on the notes.
Hence my question/query.
Have I been looking at the wrong notes?

Actually, neither do American, Canadian or New Zealand notes.
None-the-less, the symbol is still the $

the 'dollar' sign in the text is not very clear - but it is the same as the sign in blue at the top that we are asked to look for ;)

I try my best to make it similar. So, thanks for saying that.
And, it's for a bit of fun. To see just how long it takes you?!
Re: A Trivial Puzzle - March 2013
Took me about 10 secs. Zooming in on the picture made it a lot easier ;)
Thank you [ctrl] and mouse scroll wheel :-bd

;)) Cool. There are no rules on how you find it, and I'm afraid there are no prizes for ingenuity!
Re: A Trivial Puzzle - March 2013
I too had to zoom in, then I found it in about 10 secs. But I kept looking everyday at the normal size and never found it.
