<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2996643, member: 19250&quot;]The cent and half dollar should be done away with,reason&nbsp; the cost, and both are no longer needed for commerce . As for the nickel,dime and quarter all are still used , granted the 5 cent coin cost what near or around 7 cents to make,but doing away with the cent ,and half would help off set cost for the coins that are used primarily in daily business.</p><p>One needs to remember that 40 years ago when our money had true value,all coins were used and held their value in commerce. Adjust for inflation and see what their true values are by todays standards.</p><p>Today walk out of a 7/11 store&nbsp; and cents are thrown all over the sidewalk and parking lot....40 /45 years ago you never saw that...and if you did you bent over and picked them up.</p><p>I have nothing personal against the cent or half....they just out lived their time .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
