<p>[QUOTE="wgpjr, post: 1007219, member: 22482"]I went to various shops earlier today and used halves at pretty much every store. Just about every cashier stared at them, wondering what they were. One asked me what they were, I told her they were half dollars. Then she lays two down and asks me how much that is. I told her a dollar (my bill was $63, $3 of which I paid in halves). She then recounts the halves, has a puzzled look on her face, then realized it was three dollars worth. I swear, some of these teens are complete idiots. I hate when people ask what these are, when it says RIGHT ON THE COIN they are half dollars! lol I get a laugh out of it, but at times, I feel sad for our society.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some of you mentioned the president dollars give you trouble at times, but I never have trouble with those. I guess they're circulated quite a bit in this area, as cashiers don't think twice when they take them. I see them quite often in cashier drawers.
