[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1726468, member: 75105"]As a cashier, I find this coin would come in handy. If your change is 43 cents, you get back a quarter, a dime, a nickel, and 3 cents. But with the twenty cent piece, you get 2 20c pieces, and 3 cents. 5 coins instead of 6. If your change is 24 cents, you would normally get two dimes, and 4 cents, that's 6 coins. With the 20c peice, you get one 20c peice, and 4 cents. 5 coins instead If your change is 97 cents, you get back 3 quarters, 2 dimes, and 2 cents. That's 7 coins. With the 20c piece, you get back 3 quarters, one 20c piece, and 2 cents. That's six coins. Boom, 3 transactions that eliminated the use of an additional coin. The UK does not use the 25 cent piece, it uses the 20 cent piece. So does Australia and a host of other countries. I say we should add the 20c piece back to our coinage.[/QUOTE]
