OK. I think I got you now. In other words you can only use quarters to replace five dimes. I hate it but you're right it does work.
I should add that while I love dimes as a collectible I've never been fond of them as a circulating coin. This especially applies to the clad...
OK. This can work but it works against the consumer to round up all the time. Some stores will take advantage by not having quarters and always...
Post #29; Yes, but you can't get 5c in change or 15c in change. Every other number could be managed but the typical counterperson at...
So what do you do with the 50,000,000,000 quarters? There would either be some convoluted rounding scheme that sometimes cheats the seller...
No! You don't have to round off the sales tax. You can charge 7% on the total or 11.1% on the total. You just have to round off the total to...
Yes, you could get rid of the nickel and round to the nearest dime but that makes 50 billion quarters that cost 4 billion dollars to make obsolete...
Back in the old days it was mintages that were the primary determinent of supply for any given date but in the modern era this is no longer true....
The best bet is probably to try to put together a set of the nicest clads of each date you can find. Don't only look for coins with the least...
Look for a greater separation between the E and S in STATES.
I should add that making a coin that is a drain on the economy and on commercial transactions is a far greater insanity. To also make this coin...
Nickels have to be made because they serve as a bridge to make change. We could round them out of existence too, almost, except there'd be no way...
I love your rant and couldn't have said it better myself but must take great exception to this; This does apply to pennies and to a small...
Congratulations. That's not a die break through the date is it? Beautiful coin by the way.
I hardly doubt that costs are higher on the dime than a penny but that it's triple the cost is an exercise in creative accounting. A cent die can...
I advertised through the late-'80's and early '90's to pay $40 for any '82 or '83 dated quarters in well struck gem. I got very little response...
One other consideration that gets overlooked is that the mint is so tied up making vast quantities of less than worthless cents that they have to...
This is absurd. If you subtract the metal costs from these it looks like; cent: 1c nickel: 1c dime: 3c quarter: 6c dollar: 20c...
The cent can only aspire to be worthless. Not only are we a little poorer everytime one is made but we are poorer everytime one is usede...
Sorry to hear about your father. I'd suggest holding onto them a while to see how they shake out. When you can identify the common ones go...
Separate names with a comma.
