Japan
(http://www.geocities.com/scottishmoney/banknotes/japan/japan5000yen.jpg)
Higuchi Ichiyo(1872-1896) was the pen name of Higuchi Natsu, she assumed a pen name so that she could continue to write in a man's world and have her works published. Her works were critically acclaimed, and memorable 110 years after her untimely demise in 1896. Her works are considered the first significant work by a female in Japanese literature, and in 2004 she was finally recognised with the issue of this 5,000 Yen note. This note has many security features. The depiction of Higuchi Ichiyo represents only the third time in Japanese history that a woman has been depicted on a banknote, the first was in 1881 more recently a 2,000 Yen note was issued with Murasaki Shikibu in 2000.

Ivory Coast
(http://www.geocities.com/scottishmoney/banknotes/ivorycoast/wasivorycoast.jpg)
This lovely note from Ivory Coast is actually an issue of the West African States Currency, CFA for short, but it is coded for Ivory Coast. This note has a lady with cowrie shell beads in her hair, curious because cowrie shells served as a form of money in many cultures long ago. The reverse of this colourful note has a market scene. This note is printed by Banque de France.

Hans Christian Andersen was on the older 10 Kroner note at the same time the three nekkid ladies were on the five, but he is not pretty, and in fact, he is right ugly.

They're not money, they are collectable little works of printed art masquerading as money.

Very few women on banknotes are known, on the Australian Ten Pound note it is known that Karina Nartiss was the model for the reverse of the note. Similarly a lady on the reverse of the 1942 Bulgarian 500 Leva note is known, and occasionally autographs the notes, she is still alive. This girl from the Bohemian note is unknown, but she is described as a rural farm girl. I am currently looking for a nice example of the Bulgarian note, autographed if possible.

A rare example of a allegorical lady on a banknote that is a known person.
Australia

Australia is a land of immigrants, aside from the Aboriginal people that settled what we now know as Australia approximately 40,000 years ago, most people have settled Australia in the last 220 years. Many came from Great Britain, quite a few not so willingly. After WWII many came from the rest of Europe. This note was introduced in 1954, design changes were prompted by the 1952 death of King George VI, who was the subject of the Australian notes up to that time. With the change of monarchs, The Commonwealth Bank of Australia decided to feature more historical Australians on the new series, whilst retaining Queen Elizabeth on the £1 note.
The front of the note has a portrait of Arthur Phillip, first governor of the New South Wales territory, but the reverse, the design representing Science and Industry portrays a young model, an immigrant to Austrlia, named Karina Nartiss who was a native of Latvia. The Commonwealth Bank had hired her as a model, and photographed her, and had her sign over rights to the photographs to the Commonwealth Bank. Curiously she was not informed of the purpose of the photographs, until just prior to the release of the notes in 1954. For her part she was paid £10/10, now AUD$21.00. The identity of the person on the reverse of the £10 note was afterwards a mystery, until a couple of years after Karina Nartiss's death in 1985, when her identity was thence made known.
In the £SD system the £10 note was the largest denomination actually printed and used, though £20 and £50 notes were designed and planned. There are two varieties of this note, this note P-32 has "Governor, Commonwealth Bank of Australia" under the Governor's signature, whilst the later variety, P-36 has "Governor, Reserve Bank of Australia".
