<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ikandiggit, post: 923035, member: 16269&quot;]I remember being a kid (early &#039;60&#039;s) here in Canada and getting fifty cent pieces fairly often. I still get the odd one in the till at work but maybe 2 a year. I don&#039;t have a answer as to why they&#039;re no longer used as commonly as the other denominations. It can&#039;t be the size because we have the $1 an $2 coins which are about the same size.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the last time I could buy a roll at the back was in the late &#039;70&#039;s.</p><p><br /></p><p>The mintages began to drop under a million in the &#039;80&#039;s. However, the mintage for 2002 is 14,440,000. Even so, I haven&#039;t seen one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
