<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bromac4, post: 172114, member: 663&quot;]Please understand that I don&#039;t mean to offend anyone&nbsp; here, but your arguments against dollar coins are simply ,in reality, not valid.The arguments come from a rather emotional perspective without any real experience of using coins instead of bills.</p><p>Here in Canada we have had one dollar coins for 20 years and two dollar coins for 10. I have never been in any danger of having my pants fall down or my pockets burst. I have never heard a retailer( and I work in retail) complain about handling problems and most vending and change machines will accept both 1 and 2 dollar coins. I also don&#039;t remember hearing any great uproar from the vending companies.It is very common to see examples of both these coins from their first year of issue so I don&#039;t think anyone can argue that a coin will last many,many times longer in circulation than a paper note.</p><p>Most young clerks and cashiers have never seen&nbsp; a one or two dollar bill and wouldn&#039;t know what to do with it if one was presented.Once you get over the original emotional response you will find that in practice it is really a pretty good idea.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
