[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 4851125, member: 77814"]There was one kinda recently, but not really for Circulation. The 2000 Library of Congress $10 Bimetallic Gold and Platinum [ATTACH=full]1171603[/ATTACH] but I think the extra processing time and cost makes it not worth it for daily-use circulated coinage. Plus you have to remember, all the vending machines are used to certain metal/electrical characteristics. So you just can't introduce something new that "replaces" something existing. The USMInt gets input from the Vending industry, banking, etc before new coinage stuff.[/QUOTE]
