<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 342000, member: 4626"]Modern Mexican coinage (since about 1991, when they renumerated the peso) is mostly bi-metallic and pretty hard to get confused with US coinage. I see it happen ocassionally, but not as much as it used to... most Canadian coins have identical or nearly identical dimensions to US coinage and can sneak in more readily into US circulation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Many other countries that produce coins similar in dimension to US coins have the coins sneak into US change also... A large portion of my world coin collection is actually pulled from US circulation lol... have started to lose track of how many I've found that way.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the main subject I have finally found a bank that routinely carries $2 bills... fresh, crisp ones at that... and ocassinally I will pick up a supply of them to get them circulated just for the fun of it lol...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
