<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 923405, member: 6641&quot;]My first thought was size too but it would be easy to argue against that, just look at the modern dollar coin.&nbsp; The generations that used the half dollar were also around to see silver dollar circulating.&nbsp; People accepted them due to the generation (what they were use too), the fact that they had silver and as such value beyond the coin.&nbsp; As the silver went away and people searched out ways to make life more comfortable it marked the end of the half.&nbsp; I think people would stop using coins all together if they could find a convenient way.&nbsp; They have pushed it down to the lowest denominations only to make it possible to make change, not as a primary means of making a purchase.&nbsp; And this is why I think the 1/2 and dollar coin will never really come back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
