<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NPCoin, post: 547868, member: 5629&quot;]We already have a practical circulating $1 coin.&nbsp; You simply have to demand it!&nbsp; If the bank tries to give you $1 bills, hand them back and tell them straight out, &quot;I don&#039;t want dirty money, I&#039;ll take coins please&quot;.&nbsp; Same at the market.&nbsp; If they hand you dollar bills tell them you don&#039;t like dirty money, ask if they have dollar coins instead.&nbsp; Use the phrase &quot;dirty money&quot; as much as possible, and you&#039;ll start to see a difference in people&#039;s reactions toward the dollar coin.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>What do you mean it is not practical?&nbsp; Practicality and use are two different things.&nbsp; Just because something is not in use in no way implies that it is not practical.&nbsp; The $2 denomination is quite practical for the normal everyday small purchases that we make.&nbsp; One or two $2 bills may be used for any purchase between $1.01 and $4 quite practically.&nbsp; And why use two $1 coins when you can simply use one $2 coin?&nbsp; Which is easier to use, two or four coins?&nbsp; If the purchase is $4, it&#039;s much easier to handle two coins rather than four.&nbsp; And why stop there?&nbsp; One coin is best...just hand them a $5 coin!</p><p><br /></p><p>There is really no reason that I can see that we do not have a circulating coin for every denomination in use today.&nbsp; I would much rather be able to count my $19 in change by simply opening my hand, scanning the coins returned, and pocketing it.&nbsp; Much easier and faster than messing with dirty money, trying to unwrinkle and unfold the paper to fit into my wallet while some guy on a cell phone is pushing me out of line before the cash drawer has even closed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
