<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1913957, member: 5233&quot;]Actually...our monetary system was originally designed to be by units of 10.&nbsp; It still is to a certain degree.&nbsp; The quarter dollar works better than 20 cents due to the other coins in circulation.&nbsp; If you look at many of those other countries...they also have a circulating 50 denomination.&nbsp; Without one...you need a 25.&nbsp; Believe it or not, we don&#039;t have a 50 (because it&#039;s not used).</p><p><br /></p><p>Originally, our coins consisted of 4 denominations...cent, dime, dollar, and eagle.&nbsp; If you look...to this day, our coins are still using these units (except for the eagle).&nbsp; 10 cents = 1 dime, 10 dimes = 1 dollar and 10 dollars = 1 eagle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
