Remember when the US Government wanted people to use these dollar coins instead of dollar bills because coins circulate for longer? They wanted to save on costs because paper money disintegrates quickly. Americans rebelled against this tyranny and production of the coins only lasted a few years.

It would have worked if they stopped printing $1 bills and collected them all from banks.

I love giving dollar coins to bums. They get so mad and confused.

I liked dollar coins. They had more mass.
They're achtually useless for a couple of reasons. If you need coins, you use quarters. Most vending machines will take nickels because a nickel used to hold value, and a few will take half dollars, but dollar coin vending machines were so rare they had to be labeled. I can't think of a single coin vending machine that didn't take quarters. Nowadays, most people prefer cards to carrying cash, and the majority of vending machines have a card reader. As a result, there's no need to backfit them for dollar coins.
Also, dollars are effectively made of cloth. It's way more cost-efficient to print a 20. That is to say, this is a slide thread and you didn't actually post this for a good reason.

My mom worked in a gas station for over 10 years so she'd get all the sacagawea, Susan b anthony, wheat coins, silver dimes and $2 bills that came through. She has probably close to 7000 combined.

Dollar coins are neat whenever I go to the bank I ask for everything they got including the two dollar bills
Things sure where different back then nowadays the government would probably more than likely just force people to use them

Isn't that just a basic thing to have. Coins for small currency. I can't believe you retards sprang from this country considering you get the most basic stuff back to front. Third world African countries have all their money in notes. Again, removing U from words like favour. You still speak English retard. It'll never be called American because America is a completely artificial identity. It's not even an ethnicity. Just another colonial shithole.
>>

Susan B.s and Saquaquatchwea are completely worthless coins. Wheat Pennies are good cause copper, $2 are cool but totally meh to have more than a few cause they’re kinda pointless. Non-silver coins in general are trash.

American one dollar bills are literally one of my favorite novelties about the States. $1 and $2 coins are gay and it feels disrespectful to throw coins at strippers

The Canadian government literally sold $20 face value silver coins for $20 fiat for years. The promotion was called 20 for 20 and you could buy them at every post office in the country lol.

I remember the little Sacajawea dollars.

I still occasionally get change with big dollar coins and 50 cent pieces.

The only 1 dollar coin I ever encountered with anything approaching regularity was the Sacagawea 1 dollar coin - pic related.

I really wouldn't mind if $1 coins became popular and replaced the $1 bill. The problem is, that even by the time they were introduced, they were almost pointless. And now they make even less cents.

It would be nice if I could go to the bar and plop 2 or 3 coins onto the counter and get a beer, but that just wouldn't be possible. In most places, even the cheapest drinks at a bar are around $5.00, and of course that doesn't include a tip.

Because of this, it would really only make sense if they did a $1 coin AND a $2 coin. That way you could mix em up for purchases under 5 or 10 bucks. But that'll never happen, plus I would hate to copy Canada
>>
>>488366955
that’s retarded. you’re supposed to toss your change into the middle of a busy street and let the homeless dodge oncoming traffic while they collect the coins. giving them out directly is lame

I liked them but most people didn't know what they were. If you tried using them for anything they just assumed it was a fancy quarter and kept waiting for the rest of your money.

I'd be all for that if modern coins weren't absolute garbage cupronickel bullshit or maybe even if we could get some coin designs that aren't absolute trash. Even old brass arcade tokens feel better than modern coins. I mean have you seen the quarters recently? Jesus christ. They're so fucking ugly. Even if they didn't look and feel cheap they'd still be hideous.

They actually aren't more cost efficient despite being made of cloth becuase the most wildey circulated coins being made of metal are far more durable and last anywhere from 4 to 7 times longer than the most widely circulated bills. It costs about 5 times more to stamp a coin than print a small bill like 5s and 1s but the savings over time on average exceed that.

2019 actually had a quarter deisgn that was pretty decent. Little busier than it needs to be and would look better with just the lion and the steeple two times each rather than the waves and grain and maybe with a thicker cross as well but still not too bad.

This. ^^^^
People would put those in the vending machines instead of quarters. lol
