Different sizes and colors of bills, a triangular cent, square nickel, scalloped dime, leave the quarter alone (because it has George on it) and makle the dollar coin with 13 sides on it (for each of the original colonies). This way the visually impaired can use the money easier, the vending industry can sell all new machines to replace the old ones, the vendors can raise prices even more and coin collectors get cool shaped coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>This would be a win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win... situation.</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.
